Whoops never finished my last email before sending it off. The brass
fittings Jim reffered to do not get welded to the fuel rail, instead you
tap the rail, and just screw the fittings in.

I also wanted to more specifically meantion that if you want to keep
labor down then the KH pieces are the way to go. Trust me, I was trying
to do the same thing that you want, keep the MC teardrop TB. But it is
such a bear to work around with the fuel rail so close, to change just
the MM hose you have to fight and contort and take the entire TB off
every time you have to remove the hose, for a tear or whatever reason
you may need. Making things fit and work with the teardrop TB will cost
you probably 10x the "labor" thats involved in getting a KH piece on there.

Keep in mind I'm in no way telling you you can't do it any wich way you
want, it's just that many of your time/money saving ideas meantioned so
far are going to make it a more painfull transition to the end result.

I guess I'm done this time :)
