This is my solution to getting the Zenith Lyc carb air box to fit the CH750 cowling. I was hoping the nice rounded lip molded in the cowling would fit but not so. The air filter angle is also wrong. So I trimmed away the lip, built the bottom edge forward and added a recess at the top to get a reasonably close fit of the air filer mount to the cowling. Just rough mock-up work so far, so the fiber glass experts need not worry too much yet!
