Greetings:

The stock carb is good for over 50mph on the Aero SE/AF05E. You may have to re-jet a size or two up, but yes, you can run the stock carb.

Your piston may exit the engine in a liquid form.
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.
