Anyone tried this engine with suitable on road manifold and pipe ? What carb have u used in this engine as with the engine carb i cannot access the idle screw !!!!!!
Thanks
thanks
try the nova header & see if it works, or go to your next on-road meet & ask around if anyone has a spare header that you could try to see if it will work !
& with the carb just set the idle gap at .7mm & tune to that as you don't need to touch the idle on the GX range once it's set, if your idle goes off there is usually a cause for this & adjusting the idle wont fix the problem, just check the idle gap each time you have the motor out. JMO
keep us informed on how u go
