Matt's .010
Cribbs74 Tue Apr 09, 2013 1:57 pm
Matt sent this .010 to the TD tach race and it was a DNF. I did not have a chance to mess with it then and I felt bad so I had him send it back to me. The crankcase was drilled for pressure and it was an obscenely big hole. Matt had already plugged the fitting so I can only assume the carb bodies are not air tight or the volume around the inside of the carb body is to large to maintain adequate pressure. At any rate I JB'd the crankcase and here is the result. Thanks for letting me experiment Matt!

Those things are just freakin' amazing, scary little suckers. Matthew will be glad to see that.

Thanks again Ron for troubleshooting it. I just assumed that the carb was airtight.
I'll have to run it and make a video when it gets back. Who knows, maybe it will see some airtime!

You're quite welcome Matt. I was glad to help. I do hope it sees some airtime.

I just had to JB weld a crankcase hole in a .010 and a .049. THe .010 hole was at least 1/16" in diameter and drilled at an angle. What did that engine tach at? Sounds like upper 27k to 28K.

Check and make sure whoever tapped the crankcase didn't bore the venturi too. I'm guessing not, since it obviously wasn't struggling to draw fuel, but still a good idea to check.microflitedude wrote:Thanks again Ron for troubleshooting it. I just assumed that the carb was airtight.
