Re: What's wrong here.
Well it is my 299 dollar weber to gl100 adapter. Never trust a guy that won't give out a phone #. Looks like they mated the runner to flange with a chainsaw.

Re: What's wrong here.
You have my interest as well. That's a pretty big miss on the alignment.

Re: What's wrong here.
I will wait to see if they respond to my email. Disappointed to say the least. I am a poor man, and that's a lot of hard work for something thats too light to be a boat anchor.

Re: What's wrong here.
Two things. They HAD to know it was bad. And they sold it anyway. Not good, and not expectable. Making it right.....because they got caught, is not good enough. People need to know who they are

Re: What's wrong here.
I know one person that was selling hard mount units like that but they had a bad tendency to crack after a few miles. Those rubber adapters on the intake manifolds are there for a reason.

Re: What's wrong here.
OK I misunderstood. I thought you were setting up a single carb. There was someone making single carb setups that were rigid and those are what was cracking. Yea get in touch with Russ White down there at Revival and he will fix it. If not let me know.

Re: What's wrong here.
I thought so. I have a pair destined to be installed in the near future. I certainly don't expect to find what you've found, but will sing out if I do. The setup I have was never installed, but I have no reason to expect trouble with fitment. I've never heard of any issue in that regard.Wangthang wrote:Your very own Randaaks
Sorry about your troubles with this. It's supposed to be a fun and exciting project - not a heartache.

randakks phone number is hardly a secret. Sure they for the 1000 heads?
