indyblade missfire

Hi Everyone! Can anyone throw any light on why my recently built indy blade missfires at high revs if the bike airbox is removed and replaced by a smaller one ( so the bonnet will fit ) i'm told it needs ' flat slides ' in the carbs, any info very welcome. Ta.

probably due to air flow turbulence through the carb/injector body (you didn't specify which but most likely anyway).



Enjoy.

Hi
TTS do a jet and filter kit specifically to allow a blade engine to fit under kit-car bonnets which includes a pipercross filter. I think one or two guys on the list have fitted it so it must do the job.

Hi, home made air box, thin ally sheet then used blade filter element, works a treat n fits under bonnet like a glove..........
