hi has anyone fitted this kit or the worb5 kit, did they had to do much reworking of the inlet port or will they just fit straight on with no mods and with the standard carb thanks :?

Yup. DRT.
It's for a large frame Vespa.
You'll need to remove material from the case in order to give the reeds enough room to open.
I chose to split the cases to do it. Could be really messy if you didn't.
Installation moves the carb box slightly forward & up. Sounds weird, but everything fits.
You might need to make a gasket or 2.
It was a decently made product.
I can see someone running an autolube system having issue with it.
