    What carb

    I've been told the barrel,head,gudgeon pin bushes and spacer are original shirty,i put a new piston and rings etc in,which are dt250mx,the piston needed 5mm taking off the skirt,and the headgasket needed tweeking.I aim to start it sometime soon..............when i get over the first kick nerves!
