Well after fiddling with it, I got it mounted, and its only 1/2" further out than called for. Carb sits above the tank, just like in my LT-40, which runs fine, so not concerned about fuel flow. I got it to fit by beveling the mounts to accommodate the crankcase, and it dropped right in. What I thought would be an issue, turned out to be a non-issue, the cable for the throttle turned out to be in a perfect position, right above the tank. I mixed up my own green dope, though I only have Cub Yellow, it isnt as light green as I would like, looks more like Zinc Chromate, but its fuel proofed now where I had to notch out for the needle.
