Just use bicycle innertube like I did.. it works beautifully, and makes it hella easy to remove/install your carbs.

Looks sharp pyxen. A couple questions: first, did you use mountain bike tubes? I assume so. Second, what did you do about the connection between the airbox holes and old boots? My boots are super stiff and have shrunk some over time, making them seat loosely in the airbox itself, and a real tight squeeze on the carb openings. SO I guess I'm asking, did you put the tubes around the entire carb boot, or just the carb end?

Thanks
