intake question
Can't find a straight yes or no answer - do the holley intakes fit a nikki? I want to get rid of the stock intake but i like my nikki carb. what are my options?

I believe you'll need something like this adapter plate due to the base plates on the Nikki and the Holley manifold are different sizes.
I would think making one would be your best bet.
Picture does not represent actual part needed. Used as a reference only.
An adapter that goes from this to this.

can't believe u can't find a positive answer on a nikki fitting a holley intake. the answer is no. even tho u can redrill the mounting holes to bolt the carb on it, the holes of the carb throttle plate no where near matches the runner holes in the intake. it is possible to use some sort of adapter to make it work. how well it works is yet to be seen. as for where to find the adapters, bout all auto parts stores carry them.

ah, that answers that. what about different intakes for the Nikki, then? googling comes up with stock intakes and nikki carbs for other applications, like lawn mowers, lol

I think i would consider a early 70's mani with individual runners before making the swap to the Holley Mani. As long as you weren't running an open plenum spacer in conjuction with either mani's.
Although, i really like the idea of putting the nikki on the holley mani.

I'm working on doing any slight performance gains while retaining a majority of the stock parts. I'm just really fond of the nikki, I like the tune-ability is has.

[QUOTE=Mr_Miles;10758612]I'll have to look into that. this would be a rx2 / cosmo mani, would it not?

Ditto,
BTW, i currently have one sitting around if you're interested. Individual runner like you're looking for.
PM me if you're interested.
