At the moment I'll be pleased if it goes in a straight line!
The reason I asked, was if you were using a PHBH or similar carb it is best you don't have the sidepanel rubber going all the way around the panel. Reason for this is to allow as much air as possible into the carb.

Just looked at all the pictures on the thread, from the carb box, where does the air bellow fit to the frame & where is the choke lever on the frame, I only noticed one hole and I was assuming that was for the fuel tap.
Just a thought, on one of my previous conversions I used a motorcycle petrol tap. You have to weld a thread section into the tank, the petrol tap screws into this and has a very easy on off fuel tap. I used this method because the petrol tap for these models is rubbish and fuel leaks every where. SIP fast flow tap works but the fuel line connector is on the wrong side, I think. Best to check this out.
