Default RE: 1.60 carb mod project

Ben,

The basic idea is to return to the original needle valve in the carb design and get it off the back of the engine where some guys have had air leaking problems. A simple conversion to a more precision style carb with 2 or 3 needles to fine tune the midrange for torque rolls and hovering stuff kinda like what the heli guys have gone through. I myself have yet to start my new engine, I’m just anticipating some of the different problems that have been brought up here in this forum.

Scott

P.S. thanks to f3a05 for your input and ideas!
