Title: UFO for RD350AC carbs
Post by: 2t Fan on January 23, 2021, 12:22:13 AM
Hello
I bought a pair of UFO from NCS, supposed to be for RD /Banshee . But when I checked it on the RD slide it's too loose. Did I get a wrong product ?

Hmmm...  I think those are the only small ones they make. I would just center it the best you can and blend the edge of the back of the slide to it.

Is it so, in that case if it's not a flush fit will it affect airwaves  :umm:

This is from email by racerclam (member here) "UFOs to fit the 28s so I cut them down from the 32 size . They make for banshee 26s and 32mm and up. I cut them down to fit many different sizes. If you want do them I need the carbs also to make sure the cut outs in the bottom fit for the slide to go down for idle , not a problem" --- He works with these a lot also does dividers, can't find the link to his site now.

You would think they would have at least sent larger ones, so could be trimmed down.

NOT SURE. HE CUSTOM MADE some for vm34s I asked him to do for me, hes more triple oriented. i actually sent him a full blueprint of the slide i needed it for (modeled in SW and then put into a drawing).

Im sure that helped move it along.
