Is the needle valve assy the same as a TD? I am thinking it is. The late TD NV should be silver in color

The hardest thing to find will be the venturi nut.

Is that the correct starter spring? I've never seen one like that.

Me either, in fact I have never even seen a spring on a Hopper.

It may be correct if it was installed in some sort of RTF?

No, it's an aftermarket spring starter, a company (don't remember name, i'll look it up tonite) made those for TD, Atwood, Cub, etc. in the 50's.

The Space Hopper was never a 'product' engine, only sold as a 'hobby' engine, like a Tee Dee. I got to look, but I think a Tee Dee needle assembly would work, with the only difference being the needle, the correct part would be off a Space Hopper with 'Bee' type needle.

Are you going to run it? If so I would go with a Texas timers fine thread needle valve as long as your buying a needle assembly anyway.

In that case the other missing parts are a killer bee crank, #1 or #4 cylinder, and a bladder system!

So you can run it over 20k rpm and not shear the crank pin.

Not a bad idea, since you are missing a few parts it would make an ideal hot rod hopper.
