Gen 5 carbs now have a solid metal throat to eliminate any carb ¨wiggle¨ that occured in some earlier models.
Pinch bolts are O ringed to eliminate any leakage (no need to RTV pinch bolt ends anymore).
Long LSN for smooth power band and great economy. Also gives easy reference point for factory settings (both needles flush is factory setting).
You won't be disapointed with a 7 Port. One of the best value buggy motors on the market. You won't believe the top end when it is fully run in.
Be aware these motors are very tight when new, and require an extended ¨Heat Cycle¨ run in period to get the best performance out of them. It takes around 1.5 gallons to get rid of most of the metal pinch - then look out
If you do purchase one, PM me and I will send you a good break in method that has worked very well for me.
