I see in the 2 pictures, the center divider is a little different. What works best with the T-Quad? I thought there was a file in the Tech section on how to modify the LD340, but can't find it. Must not be putting in the right search parameters. Does anyone still have the file they can post, and it be archived? Here's a picture I stole off the internet, not sure where, but it shows a gasket on top of the modification.

It is in the tech archive under Fuel System, DC Bulletin 34 racing carburetor and manifold calibration

I ground out my LD4B with a die grinder and used a TQ base plate with the throttle shafts removed for a template, it looks way better than the ones I have seen done with a gasket. I know looks aren't every thing but it almost looks like the factory could have done it. Both bolt patterns are already there.

I am doing the same combo, but am going to try to use the adaptor.That way if I want to change carb or switch manifold later on, it's still in good shape Hopefully, I have enough hood clearance. My questions is how do you install the choke setup? The stock manifild has hole for the choke stove(I think that is what it's called)the LD340 intake doesn't have this setup.
