Im dont know what adaptor your talking about???
They make Blow threw carbs designed for boost, and youd need a sealed hat for the top of the carb...
Like these....

he\'s talking a draw-thru, not blow thru.
The turbo \"sucks\" air thru the carb with a plate-style adapter instead of blowing it down the carb.
but, I don\'t know where to get one. sorry.

search ebay. i bought one from there about 3 months ago for $75
gale banks makes them
Accel makes them
Turbounetics?? makes them
and a few other companies, but they are alittle out dated so?? i dont know if they make them anymore. if so you will pay a good $300-$400 for one. i will see if i can find one and shoot you a link.

man i looked and looked? i cant find one. but reading the artical on the 2 that truckman91 put on here the blow through might be best? plus sealing your carb aint that hard and you need a mech carb.

Blow throughs the way to go if you wanna make some power. You can purchase a carb set up for it, or modify your current carb.
A good bonnet is gonna be needed though.

I designed and built a draw-through system for a motorcycle. It is the simplest for a reason - it sucks (no pun intended). I\'d highly recommend blow-through EFI, or blow-through carb as a distant second.
