Default Paging John B:sideways carb mount ?

When mounting a single carb sideways on on a 250 blower did you have to fabricate an adapter plate?
Thanks,Jeff

If you are mounting a 4500 series carb (Dominator 1050), the mounting holes measure the same front to back and side to side.
At least mine does.

RLW,
I was going to use a 4150 hp series 1000 cfm which the base is not "square". I did not realize the 4500 base bolt pattern is square.I'm sure fabricating a plate for what I'm trying to do would'nt be to hard,just thought maybe someone made a adapter " turn" a 4150.

Profile, I was using a 4500 1050cfm, which was a square bolt pattern. I don't know if anyone makes the adapter you need. You could probably get a standard adapter and move some of the studs! JB

Jeff,
Try to stay away from the older single circuit dominators, they have to be set up to run rich all the time, unless you change the metering blocks. I think the blocks are about $100 each.
