No stock adapters. Inline intakes are fairly simple pieces really. Any competent welder/fabricator should be able to make an intake. I'm just not that competent welder. I can help design but not so much with the building. As long as the intake is fabricated correctly and the carbs are perfectly aligned it shouldn't be an issue to make a straight rod linkage so they operate in unison. The real pain is tuning a triple setup. I've run a dual setup on an inline 8 cylinder before and once it was tuned it was great. Tuning 3 on a 6 might suck but will be totally rad. They would definitely need to be jetted way down.

This is looking great. Have you dropped it in real life like fredriksoerlie's Pshop?

I'm referencing your carb pics. I have a 4M in my MarkII and want to ditch everything and go with the Weber. Did you use the 22R adapter like other guys have used? Are you using the mechanical fuel pump? Thanks!!

I haven't put the T3 suspension stuff on yet. I am still trying to work out a few issues first. I need to figure out why she is running hot before I worry about cosmetic things.

As for the carb, yes I used the 22R adapter and a 38DGES carb. I never bothered to change the fuel pump so it is the stock pump. I did end up putting in a pressure regulator though because it was flooding the carb.
