A T-piece at the front carby will be fine. This is how X2s were done & they had bigger carby on a bigger engine.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0 |

Hi Joel, this is how ive set mine up, and its as Dr Terry said. If you think about it, the carbs draw fuel from the bowl, not the line, so as long as the fuel enters the bowl, youre set.
