Nolen, just a data point on the carb, we did fine at Moab with angles up to 30DEG as indicated and had no fueling issues. Downside to the carb is it makes my 2F Sniper 60, loaded with a RTT and camp gear look like a hybrid from the fuel...

I asked @Box Rocket to draw it up as I described it. We can circle back to this and see how close we get

Then the other half of my work begins again! To start, I put in 100% OEM seals for 100% of Doors and Windows. Looking back, this was probably overkill as some of the seals weren’t that bad but I was getting them shipped from Japan/UAE so figured...

Finally got the Antique Sage Pearl LC out of the paint shop:

Yes they are cut. He is. Hopefully he will be flying for someone besides me soon

This engine does not have any current leaks but like all of these things it has leaked in the past so it needed some clean Zepp orange soak for :30 and it blasted very clean. I’m stoked.

Made the first powder drop Now I’m bleeding her out to get to the radiator support and fan shroud.

The top of the cylinder head looked amazingly clean for a truck with 4 year old oil in it.

Now Im making a pile for Powder Keg

This thing looks pretty good and it’s got good bones but it won’t stay running good with the china carb and low use since 2022. I showed it to a local 10 days ago and it did not show well due to that. I was about to slap another carb on it...

The lift alone makes it look better Got the rest of the engine parted out And on another note, Will, my son soloed today.
