I noticed you mounted your aero carb vertically. I mounted mine horizontally. I wonder if that is why my EGTs on the left side are lower than the right. If I re-orient it, I will need to buy a longer throttle and mixture cable.

Posted: Thu May 30, 2013 8:31 pmWouldn't it be cool if we could rotate our Aero-Carbs until all EGT's were balanced? That will remain a dream, I'm sure. I have no idea if going vertical has any advantage...
