So i got my new stainless steel air scoop from jet boat performance today..
BTW if you have not done buisiness with Tom over at JBP then you should give him a call next time you need anything. Awesome to do buisness with and super freindly.. www.jetboatperformance.com
Ok but back to my issue. So now that i have this beutiful new air scoop how do i secure it to my Holly Carb? I dont see any screws, bolt, latches etc.. The bottom Pic is what came off my carb so you can see what i am working with. When i get some day light i can post some pics of the exsposed carb so you can see what is there.

And is this device available locally? Can you link me?
I just looked at this thing again.. and i think you are right. the air cleaner nut is proly the easy way to go.. will that be strong enough though?

regular holley or dominator? i'll go look up the 1 i'm getting, but i run dominator, they have standard holley too.
My old Sanger had that style scoop. It had a spark arrestor holding it down. Some say the spark arrestors are restrictive, others say they aren't.
here's the type i'm getting. they sell them with throttle cable mounts also, even for morse cables

I have a plate like that but that would mean i woudl have to drill this stainless steel. wouldlove to avoid if at all possible..
So will the air cleaner bolt hold this down enough? I woudl think so as in a car thost style air cleaners are pretty attached...
I've used the air cleaner bolt to hold my scoops on single carbs since 1976. Haven't lost one yet.

This is how it's done ,held by the arrestor .
