[vandancouver]

this was on a old robin wisconsin motor. all it says is bv24, mikuni

is that a 24mm? im not sure what exactly it is. and if its worth pulling off my briggs flatty carb and converting to this

any info about this particular carb at all?

cool. do you think its worth to take off my old flathead carb and put this on instead? then i need to mod somehow a gravity feed fuel tank

IMO Briggs and Stratton make crap carbys, If this carby has a larger diameter than the Briggs one then use it!

hard to say but being that it is larger, i would say yes. depending on what type your kart is, it could be easier or harder. but i guess you could get one of the bubba kegs (5qts) and make some brackets to hang it off the back of your seat? sort of 'S' shaped brackets? you will think of something.

mike: the way the briggs mounts up has offset hole patterns. to mount of this mikuni id have to have it tipped sideways. like a 22.5 degree it would be sitting at. if the holes match up. then remove my old gas tank, get a new one and mount it up above..

think its a noticeable difference though/

i used a briggs animal intake to get my honda carb spaced, it took a bit of grinding. the bubba keg and brackets were an idea for gravity feed fuel cell. you do not want the carb to lean. if when riding it gets leaned with the rest of the motor, then that's ok

Use the wisconsin motor, they made some nice engines.
