'79 air intake manifolds... dime city? or maybe homemade?

anyone have any experience with dime city's oem parts? i'm looking for a stock set of air intake manifolds for my 79, found some on dime city cycle's page. wondering if they're a fit.

if that's a no go, how about just using some radiator hose and sealing it with silicone and electrical tape?

Bike was all ready to ride until the carbs got cracked open to clean... broken float bowl. Unsure of carb year/model (74-77 cb650?) so replacing with stock 79 carb. I have all the parts needed except the stock "air boots." Not sure if that's the correct name, but what I mean is the four ru...

'79 with '75 CB750 carbs and pod filters... jet size?

Newbie to bikes/engines here, please forgive me if this is a preemptive question.

Here's the situatio...
