It mounts on 2 studs. Take it off, turn it round, bolt it back on. Easy.

as andy said. and theres no need run the heated manifold so redirect the pipe work if you want it to look tidier, first water pump spout to thermostat housing 2nd water pump spout to back of of the cylinder head.

as u can see i dont have a lot of room to play with

[one arm bandit]

if it fits that way it will fit rotated

Naa. The frame slopes down. Not enough room

im with you, alot of use that build custom frames build around the engine and mount the tank fairly close to the rocker cover to get a good clean flowing look, this then means in some cases that the carb wont fit on the heated manifold as it sits to close to the tank. so we then make a costom carb to manifold adaptor, i only did mine yestarday(can post pics the camras on the blink) but i basically drew around the two gaskets that mount either side of the heated manifold cut them out in mild steel. then used a 90degree stainless bend cut it to fit how i needed ,welded the plates on each end. bobs your uncle, its the cheepest and simpleist way. for the plates is better to use stainless aswell but im heat spraying mine black so mild will do the job as the fuel flows through the stainless bend? hope this helps.
