it's cool except the bolts on the top WILL leak water. Try to find a way to secure them at the bottom of the cover

yeah I agree. the bolt pulls the cover down so water will pool in the center and slowly leak in. I just need to deal with these till I can come across a canister filter.

The old style faucet washers work really well for this kind of application. They are made from hard rubber and will not compress easyly.

. Are you guys running separate filter and adapters on each carb or getting a cover with venturis built in and running a snorkle type system? And where did you get the actual adapters?
