Re: WTB Go Power Reed Cage
George,
I assume you will be using this on a Clinton? If so, make sure you find reed petals that are .005 or .006.
The heavier petals are for Macs, etc.
If you have an A400, you should have the GP manifold that supplies fuel/oil mixture to the bearing plate bushing.
just my 2 cents - good luck
Terry

Thanks, Terry
Isn't there another mfg that made a cage usable (maybe with slight modification) with the GP stuffer? I'm about ready to make my own because they're so hard to find.

George,
I believe Homelite invented the pyramid cage, but I don't know if they are compatible.
GP made 4 petal and 6 petal cages and manifolds. Which one do you have?

Re: WTB Go Power Reed Cage
All I have is the stuffer manifold, I don't have the reed cage, My manifold has about a 1.3 inch dia throat and 1" 13/16 hole spacing for the cage flange and Tilly 360A

Re: WTB Go Power Reed Cage

What I'm looking for but just one. I found a NOS cage from a Homelite that might work, but it's an eBay job and for some reason, sellers refuse to list critical dims on these these things. This is getting aggravating enough that I may just fire up the mill and make my own - only a 4 petal that flows better. Or, I may make a prototype and do some vacuum forming.
