well, sort of.

some one bored this carb to 53mm, and it worked AWESOME.

its always been crackled, and thin walled.

and this weekend it finally gave.

Ive been riding it for 2 days with out opening the hood, no idea when it broke.

ran fine this way...

went ahead and yanked engine for pipe change, bendix refresh, waterbox change out, and possible midshaft transplant.

enjoy.

thats about where i set mine. it looks like in all the photo's i have seen the mark on the stator looks like it is lined up with the bottom shoulder were the timing mark on the case is. i also measure and thats where it came out at.

not a stock carb...

converted to annular discharge, and the top was 53mm...

bottom was bored some too, not sure how much.

I havent measured the butterfly, but I will.

Im bummed, this carb worked REALLY well.
 
a closer pic for those of you willing to risk blowing your junk to hell...

That is where I had my stroker set until the rear bearing decided to eat itself. And I had MSD, 215 psi compression on an 86mm bore. People are scared of timing. Just advance it until it blows then subtract 1 degree and rebuild it.

Expensive but effective
