f2-f3 carbs

ive got a 93 F2 that im having carb issues with. (the T fittings are pissin fuel) the new o-rings needed are like $38 a peice. i found a whole F3 setup with airbox and ram air but i dont know if it will fit. does anyone know? do i just have to put F3 manifolds (boots) on to get them to fit? i think the F3 carbs are slightly bigger right?

thanks

RE: f2-f3 carbs

ok, so they ARE larger. (i assumed that) do i need different intake boots or will the F2 ones work? also the F2 carbs on there now have a jet kit in them, can i use it in the F3 carbs or do i need a new one? how is yours set up? ive got k&n, full 2 Bros system, and am putting in a V&H ignition advancer. ill need the airbox and everthing for the F3 also right? i presume the F2 airbox wont fit, but will the K&N from the F2 fit in the F3 box? i know its alot of ??s but i dont like surprises and like to have everything i need before i tackle a project.

thanks

For your f2 carbs your can get o-rings anywhere. You don't need to buy them straight from honda.

RE: f2-f3 carbs

Im curious to if the f2 carbs will bolt right on or if theres some kind of modification that needs to be done and would there be any kind of power increase with the slightyl larger f3 carbs?

I was told to get an F3 jet kit because that is the model of the carbs. I picked up a Stage 1 Dyno Jet Kit. I run a full Vance and Hines exhaust and stock air filter. Becuse of the way that the intake system is set up you will need the complete F3 air system. The F3 uses ram air. I have the F3 air system on mine. The filter wont work as they have slightly different shapes.
