If you do end up going the Turkey Pan route, make sure you have one fabbed that is easily removable. If you have large hands (no offense), it is a real nuisance to do anything with a carb in a Turkey Pan. I had mine custom fabbed to be removable, and that's going on six years ago. Since then a couple of folks on here now provide "removable Turkey Pans" and they are well worth the added expense. See, Turkey Pans bolt under the carb, and over the intake manifold, so if you wanted to do somethink like change the little cam for the squirter, or even just adjust the idle mixture screws, it's almost impossible to get your hands down there. I tune my carb with a vacuum gauge and I don't think I could even get the hose on the fitting under the front of the carb if the TP wasn't removable. Some TPs have little holes in the side, which helps, but if you want to do somthing other than just turn a screw a TP that is not removable becomes a huge PITA.
