While installing my nibbi pe24 on my go cart I ran into an issue where it will not allow me to put the air filter on due to the frame being in the way. I want to know if there is a curved intake manifold that I could use to mount it. I read that some people say they make you lose power so please let me know.

No loss of power for curved intakes as far as I know.
Google search curved 212 intake brought up several places to buy from.

Curved intake is fine to use. Looks like youre gonna have to.
Do you still have your governor in place?

Yes I don’t not plan on removing the governor. But I do plan on removing throttle linkages.
Will the 212 fit a 224?

If you using a slide carb your not using the governor. Remove the internal parts before they remove themselves.

Since you have to order stuff anyway.. Shorter manifolds are available and I would get a short and stubby, foam filter if possible. The one you have now will leave your engine ruined if used in dusty conditions. Ask how I know

Well dang. I wanted to keep it for reliability is there anything I can do to keep it slightly reliable?
Okay is there things I can do to keep some reliability? And are you suggesting I get a stubby manifold or a curved manifold.Since you have to order stuff anyway..

Reliability?
A billet rod.
Remove the governor parts.
A real air filter.
Change the oil once in a while.
Use what ever intake makes it work.
A stubby intake and a short filter may still hit the frame.
I would use a curved intake. This allows for a broader range of air filters.
Ive had better luck with the dual foam ones over the bug screen cones.
Take that cone and look trough it. I bet you can see holes in the "filter"
