Can anyone give some advice on fitting an S&S or Makuni to a Springer Heritage Softail. I want to achieve a nostalgic look to the Harley and have been recomended by my dealer to fit aN S&S with the teardrop air cleaner both for performance and retro styling. Is this the better carb to fit or would a Makuni or another be a better bet. Any advice would be welcome as I am a new Harley convert. Many thanks.

You've got a good carb on it already if it has the stock CV carb. If you just want the teardrop look, one of the aftermarket companies, Custom Chrome, Drag Specialities, etc., make a teardrop cover you can install on the CV carb. You can also change to a SE air cleaner/ backing plate setup and use a round cover like came on the Evo's.
