I think the Norvels don't idle much below 5,000. There is a carb for the Cox .049 TD. The .10 sized TT has about the same power as the Norvel but turns a larger prop slower. Actually sounds like the .10 TT is what you might want. You might want to check out dieseling your Cox. Though you didn't say which Cox.

Well Sport Pilot I got it from his second post. Besides I got it right[:-]

I don't know what lines you are reading between, especially since he liked Ed's carb swap idea, which would get better transition.
((((Without going too deeply into it, let's say the reason for detuning is because I'm planning to run a larger displacement engine that has good throttle and progression and a lower idle (which is what I'm after) than the originally recommended engine. Extra weight/balance is not an issue with this setup. No muffler as of yet yet since)))) this quote
