If you are referencing the one I show below, most definitely have used them in carb'd applications
Edit in: make sure the thermostat spacer is installed in correct orientation if you install one of these. It is a water diverter too, so very improtant.

Just between me and you Bob Madera helped design that one, you should be good to go there . Best housing on the market .
I`d ask if you can powdercoat it thou, might throw off the thermal stabilization of the metal.

That's a nice looking piece. It's always a shame to put ordinary rubber hose and crappy automotive hose clamps on it though, lol. Is there a nicer clamp set up between the cheap hose clamps and fancy stainless steel lines?
