I've been fooling around with mine. I made a Walbro adapter out of Delrin and lapped both sides flat. I need to run a pulse line from the rear end of the radial mount to a pulse fitting on the front of the carburetor.

It's a Walbro WT-499 so I'm going to run it on glow and see how it works out. If it runs good, I'll add ignition and see about using FAI no-nitro fuel.
