Thanks Rick for the pic. That's exactly what I was talking about. Eric, the flat cage as you call it will not work with the factory choke and rod setup without binding during warm-up. You can bend the flat style so it resembles the original and thus allowing the choke to operate without the rod binding up against the choke cover. Not the ideal set-up but it will work and a much better alternative to modifying the choke rod to reach the cage.
