<DIV> Mike I done a similar thing, I bought a used RX that had the needle
valve that is cast into the backplate broken off, bought the Mintor needle
valve assembly and it works perfect, did have to drill the hole out to
mount.</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I needed a new carb for my O.S. 140RX, but at
the time they were on back order. So for giggles I took the carb off
of my 3M 170 to see what would happen, and it ran great. I was happy
with the performance so I just bought a 3M 170 carb for the O.S. I can
e-mail pics if you are interested in seein the 3M carb on the
O.S.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I installed an old Perry carb on the 91FX. It
landed with the same idle speed as at takeoff. An unsuspected additional,
but understandable, benefit was <U>much</U> better
braking on the downlines. There may be slightly less top end power
but the benefits far outweigh the loss, if any. The Perry has a brass
barrell which has a lower coef of expansion than alum. OS needs to
reengineer the FX carbs and also, I presume, the RX carbs.There may be
other carb options availiable that I am not aware of
?
