Blast and Big Twin/Sportster carbs are basically the same. Different 'chokes' (electric auto and manual pull cable) and the Blast is missing the accelerator pump (but has the mounts for it).
I use both style carbs on my Blasts and if it fits the twin carb, it will fit the Blast carb (except choke and accel pump).

Have any of you guys used one? I spoke to some one at scary fast and she said it would help throtel response and increase fuel mileage by 20%.What do you think before I drop $120.EZ, do I have to make any mods to the part to make it work or just bolt it on?
Thanx

Just bolts on - I made my own and incorporated it into the stack, others have done similar - it really does not look like a hard item to duplicate, there certainly is room enough - lol - other uses for airbox - aging cheese - Buell Cheese? - anyone - still buying can save you a lot of time and hassle if not mechanically inclined at all. The thing I noticed was the bottom and mid response that suddenly returned to the bike - I run the Force - not much bottom end - you need a lot of carb tuning to bring some back with it, this brought a significant amount back bringing it closer to the Toys ability - says a lot on how good that Force pipe is as well - so the mod did impress me - it will really also depend on what else you do to the bike as well - personally I would go 45/170 with that since it will probably have you a tad leaner as well.

I want to try scaryfast's carb splitter and I'm about to order one of those velocity stacks from americansportbike. My question is can I use both without modification? Do I need to do any jetting changes? Also I use the modded stock airbox with a K&N air filter and a V&H exhaust, 45/175 shimmed needle(2 #4 washers). Thanks

Ryan - it should fit, not a 100% sure, if not, 2 minutes with a Dremel sander would bring it down enough to fit.

I just read about your splitter stack EZ, I will just make that instead of buying one. I have the stack in the mail, so I'll just get some metal and JB weld in the meantime. Thanks

Another question, does the stack fit in the stock airbox? I hope it does because I ordered one last night

I don't know - never tried to do that - that would be pretty old school thing to do, if it worked, your bottom end would increase a bit - let us know - it might be a tight fit,but doable, might not.

I was looking at it today, I think it will probably fit. I don't know exactly how long the stack is though but from pictures I have an idea. I will let you know when I get mine. very excited.

Well I got the stack today and it doesn't fit. SO, I was thinking if I cut it in half and jb'd some metal in the middle I could use it that way. Like EZ's stack but half as long. What do yall think?
