If you're not worried about originality, then an OKO 3020 flatslide is what you need.
Otherwise, we recommend installing an OKO 3000. Have fit/sold a number of these for the TY175 and the results are terrific.
No need to change the existing manifold for either of these carbs.

Steve, beware that the RD one is centrally locating the carb, so it will be closer to the exhaust pipe - can be an issue on hot warm days to vapourising fuel in the carby. The original rubber is offset for this reason apart from clearing the frame tube coming down from under the tank. The combination of spacer and the RD inlet may cause a slight clearance issue to frame.
I tried a spacer on mine, got a heap more low end, but killed the midrange, pulled it out for that reason.
