I was hoping the new Carb. would arrive today but alas no such luck. In a cost cutting measure the mail delivery on campus has been cut back to just two days a week (Tue. & Thurs.) during the off summer months. Anyway I started making the new adapter/manifold that will allow this clamp-on carb to mount to the GXH50. I was going to buy the one shown in the photo below but could not find a supplier here in the US. I found a supplier in Canada but after the shipping and other various sur charges I figured I could make it myself for alot less money.
I've also been spending some time doing searches for information about setting up one of these carburetors and thankfully there is alot of information and parts available. A great source for both information and parts for these carburetors is SUDCO just 50 miles north of me in Northridge, CA. Anyone interested in HP Carbs, either 2-stroke or 4-stroke should check out this site.
