hello are idf carbs any good for xflow cheers happy new year to all

IDF's are downdraft carbs and would require a great big bonnet bulge to accomodate them, and I can't think of anybody that makes a manifold to accept them. DCOE's are much easier to fit.

Me thinks a manifold was available for the MK1 Fiesta XR2 but it ain't worth the effort.

Theres a manifold on Ebay at the moment for downdraughts to a crossflow, dont think it would be any good on a locost though.
