Haha I will be even more envious if you pick up a set of those as well! I would love triple OER's however they are way down the list sadly.... 

Cool CAD skills. 

I have 11 Mikuni carbs:) I have been hoarding.

Adopt me? 

I require minimal maintenance.

Trading most of them for things I want/ need.  I will be left with just a set of triple 44s.

Sorry... I wasn't clear. I want to be adopted by this guy:

"a buddy has two amazing cnc mills.  He owns prototype and design company and also his dad owns a super high end auto build shop."

Old clutch slave decided to leak. It probably didn't like the nice new clean brake fluid:) NOS clutch slave, spring and hose going in today.  I hope it this is the last thing that breaks for a while.

Boy oh boy is that not the truth!  Our cars, plumbing and electrical at home plus a lot of girls I've met seem to be untouchable without more problems downstream. Gives another meaning to "you touch it, you bought it".

Well there’s my problem. I can’t believe it still functioned like this! 

 

All better

One set of my 11 Mikuni's are coming back from Premo! They are currently setup for my stock 2.4L. These are vapor blasted and they will go on that cnc intake I'm making, I think they will look good next to that. I'm hopeful this makes my motor sound more like what I want, and I don't have to build a motor for my series 1. I have another set of triples that were so nice I didn't want to blast, they will be setup for a stroker build.

My overall goal when going triples is to keep it period correct as possible or at least looking period correct.  This is a 73 bracket and a 70-73 Nismo electric fuel pump.  I guess it could have been ordered as early as 70.  I believe it should bolt right on with zero modifications.  Bracket is powder coated and pump is NOS.

Time to start setting up the triple carbs.  I smooth ported the intake to 120 grit.  Having fun!

This is going to be a very nice driver.....looking great!

Well traded my harada for a more period correct SK intake.  This might be one of my favorite triple intakes.  Allows me to run stock linkage.  I got all new parts for it through OER.  Should look very nice when done.
