get some air seal from RE, i believe TKO has it in stock. take of the back plate put some seal evenly on the parts that come in contact with the block only, so a couple mm from the edge of the backplate, do the same on the carb, put some seal on the neck of the carb around the outside and cover the two sides of the pinch bolt with it

^^^ thats a good freakin find man. i try to explain to sooo many people how to seal engines. most dont seem to get it. i dont think im a good teacher. but yeah, it doesnt get any more cut and dry than that.
i recommend doing this to any new engine you purchase... you wouldnt beleive how many engines come from the factory with leaks. (low to mid grade mills) most likley, high end mills are fine.

Its not like these engines are dyno tested before they leave the factory. Its just a quick visual inspection most of the time. The carb neck seems to be one of the biggest culprits for leaks. Little Toys: Hyper One Seven | Inferno GT | Jammin X1cr | Jammin CRT Pro | 1989 Batmobile Replica
