" I run the same venturi with the new carb (24065). The main benefit is an increase in runtime."

ugggh :tire:

I am finishing putting my serpent gt together. I was going to use the short nova header and a 9886.
With the roma 25. Well I put it together and had a change of mind and now I have put on the long header and a 2052. It fits a bit better, the exhaust mounting wire was to short for the 9886

Will this be a good combo or should I make the 9886 fit.

I hope someone with more experience than me can advise.
Or maybe something different all together.
Thanks in advance.

gmk suppy makes an exhaust hanger u can bend and cut to ur desired length. As for pipe I'm not familiar with the 2052. One of the engine guys will chime in on that one

Thanks, I will order one from gmk, they look good.
Cheers.

That's all you had to say Monty! Beside's, what's wrong with the current carb? All mine work great!

The 2052 should work great with the Roma.

24063 & 24069 r great carbs

I used the gmk exhaust spring to fit the 9886/21 combo its awesome:nod:

Curious...is the main diff btwn 063 & 069 carbs the inside diameter of the neck?

That measure the venturi does better to Bonito 7XLB? Is for a Truggy Mugen.

Thanks. Best Regards.

What is this I'm hearing about an air intake hole in the Bonito that can cause a possible air leak? And some kind of silicone used to fix this issue? I havent incountered this problem with mines but I only barely have a gal on it.

Neal's (CRE) video.... http://youtu.be/gdt2luUlbuI

It's the Vacum Return port and is in EVERY Nova and Nova-based engine. Not a problem with stock engines, but modified engines, especially high HP ones, are seeing some issues. The video below explains everything.

I run all of Neal's Nova engine lines and have no issues with mine because I run Werks fuel, which is thicker than most.

Ive heard of this vid and I just watched it. I'd hate to imagine that this could possibly be happening to my gal old $400 Bonito :flaming:. Has any of you guys incountered this problem? My engine man seems to be sceptical that this is a air leak problem but he has done this repair for a buddy of mines recently and is waitng to see if it fixed his problem. Have any of you guys experienced this problem and is it reccomended to get this done to be on the safe side? Also has Novarossi said anything about this?
