Hey MotoMagz,
Thanks for the rope starting tip, that will help a lot.
For the race motor, I am allowed governor removal, billet flywheel, and 18lb. valve springs, straight pipe exhaust, and new air filter. I have to keep stock piston and rod, stock cam, stock carb. So I have done that to this engine.
For mikuni carb, I originally used the copy mikuni that sells on eBay for cheap. It worked fine, but I had a nightmare of a time once at a race at Grange track. I needed to change the main jet, but in order to do that, you have to take off the fuel bowl, then the little rubber gasket that fits in a groove swells up from exposure to air or something, and it wouldn't fit back in its groove. That was a pain in the booty!
I then bought the real mikuni from Sudco, a lot more expensive, but totally worth it because it has the main jet that can get screw out of the bowl without removing the bowl. Brilliant!
