Alright ladies n gents, i have a 88 elite with a sb50 in it and a fellow forum member has a sa50 to sell me to swap. The sa50 needs a carb and exhaust, so my first question what is a good low end carb/exhaust?
Next question, what will I need to buy for the swap? He mentioned a rear wheel and a concern that the throttle and brake cable might be too short. Anyone have experience in this?

Re: Sb50 to sa50 swap
What year is the sa50? The V-8 exhaust won't fit the early sa50.
