    Im building a flathead 8BA with an Offy Super Dual and two Stromberg 97s. I am mounting the generator to the left of the carbs using the Offy gen mount from Speedway. If anyone else is using this setup, I'd appreciate a picture of your front carb where the fuel line comes out. Looks like its gonna be awful cramped right in there. Thanks.

    Obviously not an 8 BA but the correct style intake and carbs. If this is and indicator you should have plenty of room unless you go wild with the fuel lines

    I searched though all of my East-West flathead albums and finally found this shot from my Deuce days album Flathead with EDDy intake and gen.jpg

    With a left mounted generator. I've got an 8 BA and the same intake but don't have them together yet.
