So it can be done..

Check out this company's bases:

What is the measurement from the bottom of the base to the lip that sits on the carb flange? I have a drop base but it hits the eletric choke. It appears that if I modify it to clear the choke, it will be into the base seal area where the filter sits. Thanks a ton for the help! Dave
