The new Vforce4's should be out real soon for the R's. Thee 4's work very well for the banshee's.

the boyessen rad valve is the best option. less parts and more adjust ability with a radiator style hose.

You must have a trick or way more patience than I do John! Even using an ESR eliminator (radiator hose on the back of the carb bell), I have to finesse the placement of the Rad Valve-to-carb boot and air filter. It's a real PITA to get all the angles right and tightened down. V-Force (or other standard cage designs) with UPP intake manifold is much easier since the UPP allows the carb to move a bit while staying secure.

with the stock rubber from the rad valve its more difficult. thats why i got a section of radiotor hose and i cut it the way i needed. i.e. angle and length. but, even then it was some maneuvering because the A/S carb is bigger than the PJ. but i feel its the best way to go.
