    I'm pretty close just waiting for stuff to dry. I used some gasket maker to glue the 3 pieces of cork together. Once I got it all fit I used a good knife (we call it a rubber knife in the insulation trade) and using a square cut the sides to square. I have coated the whole thing in that gasket materiel and am letting it dry while also waiting for the JB Weld to fully cure. That gasket stuff will give the cork some strength and prevent it from sucking air between the tiles and let the bottom of the cleaner pan seal to it. I got new bolts of the same size as that faccacta (SP?) air cleaner but 1 1/4" long. They are 6 or 8 X 1.25 EDIT I'm pretty sure the 1.25 is the thread pitch not the length I figured out that I can leave the throttle cable in its place after I had it mounted and screwed down tight to the top of the carb by actually attaching it while the air cleaner was bolted down. It rubs so if anyone has ideas or knows the right way for it to be run let me know please.
