Honda spree 86
can i use a stock head on 48mm bbk
if i order this carb how would i hook it up... http://www.scooter-center.com/scoweb/pa ... T_VERGASER

Yes, but you need some machine work done before you use it.

The Spree has a 35.5 mm between the mounting holes. This carb states 42 mm. Not compatible.

can i do it my self
that is the link they all gave me, can you send me on that will fit
thanks

Trafficjamz has done it with a dremel tool. But I don't recommend it because the combustion chamber needs to be clean and smooth or you can have hot spots the can lead to a meltdown. Either do it right or don't bother doing it at all. If you have to worry about the cost, you CAN NOT afford it.

if your good enough with the dremel you can turn that head into a mirror, bear if he ain't good what if he dremel'd the head, then put some of that combustion chamber enamel on it

Hope isnt lost if you cant buy one that will fit.
Heres the url to a 19mm OKO carb which is probably close enough to what you need http://www.treatland.tv/OKO-s/84.htm
If you get a CT manifold with it, you can make a custom mount for that to fit onto your engine
Thats the only other option i know of besides finding a carb that will bolt up to the stock intake manifold

If your going to do anything on the head DO NOT use a dremel. There is no way you can be accurate down to the thousandth of an inch. IF you do any head work find someone that has a lathe or go to a metal shop and tell them what you need done to your head

Two problems with you suggestion, First the OKO will not bolt to the stock manifold. Second, there is no adapter for the CT manifold to connect to the Spree (needed for the OKO to work). So basicly you know nothing about what you are advising about.

Uhh im pretty sure i do.
He needs a CT mani similar to this one http://www.treatland.tv/OKO-26mm-reed-b ... -block.htm
And he needs to custom make a spacer to fit it to his engine, just like i did on my own Spree engine

You're not paying attention! You need a special home made adapter to put the CT on the Spree. You can't buy one so the OKO will not work without it. So recommend it is not helping.

I know. I have no idea if this guy is tool handy or has the tools to make it. So i just threw it out there as an option. Wether or not he can, or decides to go this route or a different route, at least he knows its a possibility.
