VM33 install on J model head

I picked up some new old stock Mikuni VM33 carburetors and I cannot mount them on the intakes that my BS34s were on. Seems the outer carbs need an offset intake. Sudco was LESS than helpful. Any tips on getting these to mount up?

Put the intake side of both sets of carbs back to and compare dimensions.
Maybe the 33s are set up for a Suzuki or other bike besides kz :)

The VM33 should be mounted an adjustable rack. It sounds like yours are configured for something other than a Kawasaki.
