Default Vanguard 2 barrel carb setup pics!

Any of you Vanny owners have a pic of your 2 barrel carb/air filter setup? It's looking for better ideas than what I have.

Briggs intake elbow #798860, 2" central vacuum hose, Kohler canister air filter. It runs better sucking in cooler air, instead of hot air and dust from under the seat.

Bringing this thread back from the dead...

First of all, thanks to Rykker, Dave, and Chevy for their input.

I'm collecting parts to put a 35 ci Vanguard in an E-Z-GO Marathon. I have the engine, manifold, elbow, and a two styles of Nikki two-barrel carbs (round bowl and rectangle bowl), but I'm still scratching my head for a low-profile solution.

I'm trying not to use multiple spacers, but don't see many options without fabricating something.

Please share pictures of your setups if you've done anything differently than shown in the previous posts.

👋 I'd like to see more pics too. I had to pull my motor today and noticed there is dirt getting past the stock air filter. So when im done cleaning carb, I'd like to upgrade the air filter set-up.

Here's what I came up with:
  • 2-barrel square bowl carb
  • Welded a tab to the throttle shaft and attached a ball/socket to the factory cable... Also made a bracket to hold the factory spring adjuster
  • Kawasaki/Toro 16060-0723 intake elbow
  • Angle iron for return spring holder
  • 2-1/2" silicone elbow
  • Short piece of piece of 2-1/2" exhaust tubing with a rod welded to a washer for bracing
  • K&N RD-0710 filter

It works great so far!
