I'm confident that Stews 4T will be one of the best in OZ
It (a stroked SP/DR 400) will be one of the easiest to ride fast, better handling pre 80 twin shocks,
And more importantly good looking !!!

The tank is the only component pre 78

Bill  .. it started life as a SP 400 1980 twin shock frame,  so I will race it  in Evo open  or  4 stroke.

Nice looking bike, my bike should be that far in a week or two.

I was planning on putting a 34mm flat slide carburetor on my SP400 engine, will this work? According to the repair manual I got, there is a 36mm carburetor on the bike, here in the forum a lot of people say the bike has a 33mm carburetor normally?

There is no big tuning done to my engine it will have an open exhaust, 3 angel valve job and the rest is stock. What size carburetor would be the best?

STD round slide  will work fine with proper jetting.  There is restricted clearance for cable route due to top rail  keep that in mind also  ;)

Air box finished and installed .... currently working on a Muffler as it is load as.  Chinese pit bike was the right shape being  Oval  and its  length was spot on 250mm, but was a  little on the small side  ( 38mm inlet ) as I require a 44mm.
Stay tune for finished item posted next week  ;)
