Dumb question, I think I know the answer though, do I need the black carb insulator that came with the stock carb? Or can I bolt it on with out it and go? Go kart racing
No . Does keep carb cooler though along with the fuel .Ok, I was thinking it might have been restricting the fuel. Tks
We have a run what you bring so no rulesNo . Does keep carb cooler though along with the fuel .
Plus its a rule thing .
I have seen some that the little groove in it was filled with like epoxy and then sanded down, what is the groove for and it seems like you don't need it in there.You need it .
The bowl vents through that groove. If you don't run an insulator you need to vent the bowl a different way.I

yep that groove, if its filled in and still runs fine, why does it have to be there.No rules ; then its not needed too fit : the rules.
:::::: this groove ?
Vent / overflow for the float bowel .
yes I was just going to say if you're running rwyb and show up with a 212 and stock carb the isolator plate is gonna be the least of your concerns.....out to lunch!Now that I think about it, I don't think I have ever seen anyone run a 212/clone carb on any small block motor in rwyb or small block open. They all use bigger carbs- 390 carb, Mikuni, Lectron etc.
