Re: Bill McCornack Break'in those duals Loose at Brodhead WI

Smokin'! Reminds me of the 8mm films which I shot of the C class races at the '65 IKF Nationals at Brodhead where we ran A Mod Heavy. Had the pleasure of meeting Bill on Sunday (8-12-12) at the Badger Kart Club vintage races at Dousman, WI. Bill smoked there as well. :)

Bucket from an AH61 will also fit. Only difference between 58 and 61 was a stroker crank.

Re: Older model HL Tillotson carburetors

I have these carbs for sale plus two Mac flatbacks, one alky which needs an ear welded on and one gas which is fine. I also have one OEM Tilly HL107A, as supplied on a PP AH61 years ago, run a few times. The Christensen carbs are alky and do require an external fuel pump or today's Tilly pump parts ...

I have a pair of Christensen alky carbs, probably still used today in vintage and IKF. The Christensen was the ideal and probably still is, though they are likely virtually impossible to find. The pair I have are in primo condition and are complete (including 1" Azusa stacks) with the exception of t...
