I'm sorry. That may not leak, but it's a terrible manifold for airflow. Ridiculously restrictive. Air doesn't like going around sharp corners, and you're getting nowhere near the maximum airflow through the carburettors. You should have the carbs respaced to match the inlet ports and have nothing more than a gradual curve on the inlet manifold runners. The straighter the better.


Bike carbs are quite easy to re-space. The big advantage is that you don't need to spend money on a custom inlet manifold because you can use the proper bike carb rubbers that hold the carbs much better the bodging with silicon hose.
