I can’t see whether you needed to notch the cowl. Is that the purpose of the spacer under the carb?

I did have to notch the cowl it was a pain to get it looking the way I wanted it. The spacer isn't the best way ,but I wanted to run a Dominator. I'm hoping for 3-4 tenths all together with the Jerico also. Don't forget it will be on alcohol too.


It should fly
