Default EVO engine front needle conversion

Is a front needle conversion possible on EVO engines or are you stuck with remote needle valves?

thanks,
ara

All the current ones - you can just put the needle assembly into the side of the carb where the black hex nut is?

Remove the black hex nut from the side of the carb

And put this piece from the rear needle valve in its place

If you are talking about the 2 stroke glow engines, yes it's possable...and easy, as W8YE has indicated...done it to a couple of mine. ( .46 and an Alpha trainer version )
