Ted, I have a HL283A that found in my stuff. I think that it is a gas carb because my father in-law did not run any alcohol. It looks in good shape just a bit dirty everything moves freely. Give me a call, I don't get on very often This is the best way to get in contact with me. Dan Heldreth 330-325...

THANKS FOR THE INFO.

I WAS TOLD BY TWO DIFFERENT ENGINE BUILDERS THAT PORTING THE PORTS IS BAD AND WONT RUN RIGHT. THE PORTS ARE PORTED REALLY BIG. WHO EVER DID IT PORTED THEM HIGHER AND LOWER ON THE INTAKE AND EXHAUST.
