Re: Be Very Careful

I have purchased several items including a MC-91A from this seller. The engine was not pristine, but for $125.00, it was a buy-it-now deal, and a is now rebuilt and one of the nicer engines I own. My opinion is this seller offers low priced deals on some of his items which are tired, and in need of ...

Mac 91C

OK, so there ain't no genuine MC-45Ds, it's a contrived MRC creation. but there is the mysteriouse MC-91C listed on the genuine McCulloch Corp IPL for the 91 series dated 1970. From what I can decipher from this document, it used a pressure pulse carb(straight bore) with the choke assembly, the same...

Re: Future of Kart Collecting?

Dave and Dan have some good points to ponder, and the question is also a good one. I too have kids, twin sons. They both drive a HumBug I had made from original parts Faye supplied to us. They love driving, and will be Kart fans. The way I see it, kids today are not so caught up in the collectabilit...

He had moved out to California from Ohio with his son's Steve and Bill, and one day while on his Honda Hawk 305, going to pick up pizza, he was killed a few blocks from his home by a drunk driver. That was about 1972. Anyway,...

Re: Lifting your exhaust port

One easy thing to always remember is more power requires that you must burn more fuel. More dissplacement is an easy way to get more power, as is artificial aspiration(boost, either super or turbo) and then there is oxygen releasing power ingredients, like nitro-methane, and nitrouse oxide!
