yes but the bowl has a overflow that drains on to the ground so it seems like you could take that and re-rout it backinto the system with like a oneway valve or somthing?

Re: runnin up high

an easier soultion would be to cut the boot that hold the carb to the engine and instead of it being straight it had an elbow in it or maybe just cut at an angle... see VERY crude drawing below....

i have actually thought about that to it seems to tbe the best solution, but on a raptor stock the carbs actually tilt down a lil bit so its even more complicated and i wonder if the fact that it has 2 carbs instead of one matters

over the winter im gonna get a couple stock boots and mess around with angles.. only thing is the top of the carb is already tight to the bottom of tank.. so angling will be of some problem
