Upjet your carb 1 size and run a performance foam air filter, it will squeeze a bit but it will fit in your engine mount. 42mm foam filter, all this stuff is available at scrappy, check out this link and see if this is the right manifold, about 6 parts down. http://www.scrappydogscooters.com/GY..._BN157QMJ.html
Hey thanks for the reply.
I'm not sure what engine it is, but that manifold isn't the one. The one I need looks exactly like one for a gy6 but it's just a hairwider where it bolts down and a bit longer where it meets the carb, here's a few photos of the manifold and the engine.

So 24-26mm on the manifolde side but what about on the air intake side? 42mm?

About the filter, can I just cut out the old paper filter and fit foam in there so I can maybe not have to upjet the carb but maybe just adjust the a/f mixture screw on the carb to compensate for the extra air flow?

I'm not experienced with taking apart carbs and jets so I'm trying to do this with as little adjustments as possible.
