DRILLING THE HOLES FOR INSTALLING THE CARB HEAT BOX
The Carb Heat Box is mounted directly to the carburetor using three AN3-16A bolts that screw into existing holes in the carb.
To drill the carb heat box for these holes, take the gasket off of the top of the carb, and use it to drill the four holes shown in the bottom of the carb heat box. The fourth hole is for the carb air vent and must be drilled, but no bolt is inserted. Looking at the top of the carb, you will see which holes have been threaded. Note that the gasket is positioned on the carb heat box bottom at an angle. This is so that the carb heat box will point forward since the carb is angled to the left somewhat. The other two holes in the gasket must not be drilled; otherwise an air leak will be present.
