I have Weber 40's on my '73 2.0 with the appropriate Webcam (no comments from Dr. 914 please) and would like a different look without chrome.

I still have Solex 40-PII's and Knecht air cleaners from a kit I got 50 some years ago from Ginther but misplaced the manifolds ages ago.

I'd love that kind of look- any options like that out there??

How about shortening the factory air cleaner to fit? Quiets down the engine (intake/carb noise) and keeps it looking stock. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
