Hi all !
Could anyone tell me how the legacy (with the good old carb) Irvine .53 compares to the OS .55 AX ?
Thanks a lot for any input !

I tip my hat to TOYOTA, most of us do not know how toyota is changing the world. From midsize producer as Porsche to giant Pratt and Whitney.

If you're in the USA is there even an Irvine dealer?

Not really, and the new Irvines are made by OS (OSVINES) anyway. Ihave a nice collection of original English Irvines and I could never part with any of them.

Tower used to sell the Irvines really cheap years ago. Just Engines in England had them last time I looked..... probably the OSVINES like you said nowadays.
