Getting ready to order the correct spacer but I need to know the bore size for the 376. I supposed I could just pull it and measure myself.

G'day Magista.
^^^^^ BUT if it's had my treatment LOL. Better measure it and the manifold. If different blend it to match both. A step in either is asking for trouble.

SHM in the 70's my dad was asked to bore out some kwaker 900 carbs by a local motorbike mechanic. he forgot to tell dad the slide seats would need to be cut again to shut the slides off.  the bike just revved very high, my dad had a pain of job to do the seats

Ordered and received the correct bits to replace the incorrect ones (the black spacer to the left was previously installed). Installed them last night, will be taking it for a test ride this afternoon.

Thank you for all your tips.
