First,
I'm going to see what the new
one does {:>). Who knows the old one could end up back on the
engine. However, you could probably use the
lower manifold and tubes, but think you would have to redo the upper throttle
body portion to fit under the cowl. Perhaps as Tracy has done.
Actually, if you cut down the stock throttle body to the two secondary ports
like Tracy did, it just might fit - on second thought under a RV-3 cowl
-Naaahh!
But, should I decided to get rid of
it, you will be the first on the list and the price will be very reasonable.
Would like to see what that RV-3 would do with 400 more rpm on the prop during
takeoff {:>)
