[DeTomaso] Carburator

[Mike Drew]

The solid center section engine covers aren't raised. They are exactly the same height at the back. The front sticks up a bit relative to the mesh screens but that's not really relevant. The air cleaner is higher at the rear because of the slope of the intake pad and the height at the rear is the same.
