Good Luck :monkydance:

 

anyone know anything about putting a spacer on the carb, heard of it on V8's, what about a rotary?

 

Good Morning Heronout;

The only problem with the spacer thing on a Carb is that you have to do the math.

For every 1/4 inch of lift you may have to change the Jet size and this is where it gets tech.

I've seen a 1 inch height difference, you will have to go up to as much 3 steps up on the Jet size to compensate for Air versus Fuel dilevery. Go to Felixs web site and it gets into this issue in length. Not to discourage you on this adventure, just do the resurch 1st.

Have Fun

hmmmm. i failed math. anyone care to do the math for a 1 inch spacer, and where would i get the new sizes for the jets?

 

ooh **** it. i dont need one i guess. anyways, at this point all i need now is the gasket kit for the carb and an intake gasket. and block off a few things here and there, and ill be ready to try and crank it up. im wondering if this will be my last try, to get it working. if i crank it, and its just the same, im lighting a fuel line and running.

 

haha, i hear ya

Don't forget to tell insurance that your 12a was a race build engine too. They might give you more for it.I hope it starts for you.

 

your right, i couldnt do it. but it has compression, i know this, so...what? i dont want to put more money into an unsolved problem. and to top it off my dog has the ***** and my girlfriends on her period. does god get anymore cruel?!

 

So what are you getting and what are you missing?An engine like this needs spark,fuel and air.Alot of spark is needed.

 

well i have to et the gaskets and block off some minor bullshit, so hopefully ill be trying to crank it before march
