Title: What To Do
Post by: sourkraut on June 28, 2005, 11:13:22 PM

Is there any suggestions of what I could do?
What I have is a 1641 I have had for some time
now, so I thought I would take it apart and put it
back together, easy enough right? Before I start putting
It back together, I realize there are many steps to get to this
point, what could I do to maybe make it better, slightly quicker
and sound better? I have some knowledge of the working motor
but mainly I just drove it. What about carbs ie, single or dual?
Exhaust? Thanks for you time.

There is a book by Tom Wilson that is very good for engine work. You can find a set of Kads and a 1.5\" header at most any swap meets. Maybe an Engle W-100?
