WLJ -> G-62 carb block (5/17/2008 3:05:42 AM)
Has anyone ever taken a stock G-62 carb block (black one) cut it in half, to move carb closer to cylinder, and put the carb back on and run it with sucess? I know Ralph makes a block 3/8in. that rotates the carb (got one on the table) but this idea just struck me. Didn't take but a couple of min.

I got a chance to run it a few days ago. Works GREAT. I'm just suprised that i'd never heard of this method of moving carb in closer. BJ

I've done it. Piece-o-cake. Works great. Gets the carb inside the cowl.

I used a bandsaw with a guide to keep the cut square.

I cut mine with a hand held razor saw and then sanded it flat with a sanding block.
