Hey, nice progress on the 34 conversion, I got a 34 myself and was looking at how you put yours in. I can see how you can say that it looks backwards so I tried putting it in the other way to see if it would work. I just got the nuts tightened down and then I started hooking up the throttle cable and ran into a problem with the fuel line because the nozzles are so close together that they make a kink in the fuel line. So I'm gonna try and find a 90 degree fuel thing and see if that helps. I'm considering, after getting it hooked up and whatnot, to flipping it around like how you have it setup because it would be easier to adjust settings. I'll try and get some pics and video of it when its all up and running the right 'looking' way.

I was wondering, if I flipped it around, like how you have it, I noticed your fuel line hoses, the feed and return are hooked into some sort of gauge. You know where I can get one of those? I read through this whole thread but found nothing about that. I'd have to take off the stock 2-in-1 fuel line hose that goes under the intake manifold rather than having a fuel line from the stock nozzle and routing it around the carb, I believe.

Appreciate the help/input
