Just wanted to let you know what's out there......
I remember when you were developing the base plate, great work!

I might add that it probably will NOT work with an Edelbrock/Carter type carb. There is a portion of the choke assembly linkage on the passenger's side that would interfere with the flat base plate. I managed to machine down the Mr. Gasket base that I run on my setup for a bit more hood clearance, but would REALLY like to run the nicely radiused K&N base....the Mr. Gasket base has a sharp corner, the K&N base is almost like a funnel.

Good to know MickMate has them....great adaptation and fits inside the Turkey pan, to boot!

Cheers!
