I just bought a 35mm PWK and I see on ebay that I can buy the reed side boot that fits right onto the carb. I don't have the carb in hand yet (UPS still has it somewhere) but I'm wondering if I have to do some sort of modification on the air box side. Sorry if this is a stupid question. Maybe it only has a larger diameter on the reed sid but I'm thinking it would be larger on both ends. It was purchased from a place (RJATV) that listed it as a Blaster carb. I saw these on ebay for something like $225 but this place had it on sale for $152.37, in case anybody else is looking for one. Seemed like a good deal for a brand new 35mm PWK.
Anyway, is there something I'm going to need to fit this to the stock airbox boot?
Has anybody seen a good places to buy the reed side boot for less than $58.00 plus $10.00 for shipping?
Thanks for any help.

there was a guy on here that could tell you how he did it from the airbox to the carb using the stock boot.
 
I hope he reads this and posts something. So I guess it won't just fit right up. Wishful thinking I guess.
 
I need adapters for both sides but i found the reed side boot on ebay for $58.00. Seems kind of expensive for what it is but....
Thanks for the link to the Vito's airbox side adaper. I think I'll try to make one of those once I have the carb in hand. It should arrive today. The thing from Vitos looks like a tube that fits into the airbox boot with a rubber hose adapter to step up to the carb O.D. If I find something inexpensive that works and looks good I'll post it in case somebody else is in the same situation.

For the carb to filter boot i made mine out of a rubber pvc 2" coupler found in the plumbing section in hardware store and a couple clamps. the rubber boot fits pretty nice on my 35mm keihin and then i either run a black pvc tube or aluminum tube from rubber coupler to air filter inside tube with another . the choice all depends if your trying to save weight or not. Price for everything was not anymore than $10-$12.
