* NEW * We have changed the bearing arrangement to a double seal and a locking mechanism. Four (4) heavy duty stainless steel bearings are installed and locked to the shaft via o-rings. This centralises the shaft and stops any axial movement. It also stops high speed throttle closed vacuum leaks, which are the leading cause of seizures on highly tuned engines.
This fully modified Rooster Tail Engines carburettor includes changes that increase cfm and fuel flow to their maximum which has shown to produce 1000+ rpm to our fully modified engines with a large boost to the low and mid range torque.
These WT-1048 carburettors have been custom modified with high quality, stainless steel sealed bearings on each side of the throttle shaft to help support and seal this area from dust ingress and air leaks.
When dust or sand enters the shaft bore area on an unmodified carburettor it causes excessive wear on both the shaft and the internal bore of the carburettor body. When unmetered air enters the engine via the worn shaft, it leads to a lean condition, which then causes an engine failure.
This modification stops 99% of dust and sand from entering the carburettor bore and the engine, thus making it more reliable and saving you from an expensive engine rebuild.
We recommend you install our RTE High Temp Carburettor Gasket and RTE High Temp Velocity Stack Gasket for superior heat protection.
Due to the extra fuel flow required it is recommended you install our RTE Super Flow Fuel Line Kit.
