    A little useful info before ordering the cheap Mikuni carbs

    I replaced my carb with a mikuni just because my float bowl broke, and I figure why replace palstic parts when you can have a metal carb with no annoying linkage. even the smaller venturi is better than a stock clone carb

    My New Clone with Mods (pics)

    mine had no problems getting fuel when i installed a small pulse pump, but if running the mikuni on a clone i would suggest a billet flywheel because mine exploded after putting on a mikuni.

    phase 2 of the arco bomber

    Pure reliability

    clones smetimes people have power equipment with a honda engine that needs repair and they just toss out the old engine and buy a clone because it is cheaper than paying someone to fix the genuine engine. If your lucky you can dumpster dive and have a genuine honda engine case. I am thinking...
