Who's using a Walbro Carb?

[a/c man]

Oh no not another carburetor post.
Sorry but I've got to know.
Who's put a Walbro on their 2 stroke?

I know somebody out there has put the time and effort into fabricating an intake and pulse tube on a Walbro 608 or 668 carb.

These carbs don't require being level.
They have a high and low speed fuel mixture adjustment outside the carb.
Easy peezy to adjust.
There is no float
There is no changing main jets, needle jets, pilot jets, blah blah blah.
Just an idle adjustment, and high and low speed fuel screws.

Let me know what you know, maybe it will eliminate the frustration of
dialing in these prehistoric NT carbs, so I won't have to waste my time and money doodling around to get things right and I can spend my precious free time riding this thing instead of working on it.

a/c man i got good news and bad. i topped out @ i kid u not 75.8kph single gear (original speed was 42.5kph) which im happy about. the bad is it only lasted 5mins tops. i cooled the motor down and it ran another 5mins. so im guessing its the heat screwing up the built in fuel pump.. the diaphragm probably getting warped because of that.. anywhoo i'll make a intake manifold to space out the carb and the cylinder. its not OVER yet! lol

Ps oh yeah i also dropped the cylinder down about 0.065" or 0.07" for more compression
