Yes, but with your set-up you can't use the stock airbox...

Although, I would be interested if that Lectron would fit the adapters that come with the Edelbrock...

Very true. I tried my hardest to get Edlebrock to sell me a manifold, but they wouldn't. You would probably have to port it out to get the Lectron on there because of the size differance. And the bowl might not clear the starter with that manifold.

Yes I did post it on another forum. BluTrax
If I could just find a manifold I would buy my own carb since you can buy carbs for much cheaper than 600 bucks.

Blksnshn I ended up making my own manifold. I have been tossing around the idea of having some made out of aluminum at a local machine shop, but there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of intrest in switching to a single carb for the Raptor. It wasn't to difficult to make, even with my lack luster welding skills. Mine doesn't look so hot, but it works very well. You can click on my photo page to see a picture.

Just curious, how much do you think would be a fair price for an aluminum 2/1 manifold?

Well Ward. I know I would like to do it, I don't know about the price. I think free for me is good j/k. $50-$100 maybe
