Hello all, I have been running a Yamaha for my entire karting career but would like to know more from all of you guru's! I recently ran my "new" engine from what I was told but it really feels down on power from my old Adkins engine. I am going to throw a carb kit at it and pulled the head to paint the outside rib. I did notice some black build up around the rim and leading up towards the plug... was wondering if this is normal? Or do I have an issue here? Also does this head have a front or back? It looks as if both sides have been painted with engine builders names at one point and I didn't know if it could be flipped front to back? Thanks!! Colin
