you relize that you will have to mix gas then, becuast on the sb50 the oil is injected into the carb and not the intake. i alredy went down this route. i had one on my 45mph spree, but it also had a sa50 carb.

or you could keep the oil injection and install a manual petcock or even better install a sb50 carb while your in there
the sb50 is an aero right?

SE50 engine is very similar to an Aero, if not identical.

sorry to bring back an older thread but has anyone had any success with this sb50 intake? what do you have to do to get it running right? always flowing petcock AND premix?
thanks in advance

ok, whoever said something about a constant flowing petcock is crazy, you don't need one, you can use a stock one. the sb50 intake sb intake is from an elite E not from a honda aero, to use a sb50 intake you must use a sb50 carb or run premix. with the 85 aero you can use the intake and you spree carb but it can only be from a 85

yeah but if you had a constant flowing petcock you could inject oil through the vacume port you just freed up instead of running premix

forgive me but I do not know too much about elites, but would an 87 elite have the carb and intake I need or would it need to be a newer one? I found one for a decent price so i hope that is the year, but I get a feeling it isnt.

Maybe I'm just a simple old hot rod guy, but why not just drill and tap a hole and install a second nipple in the intake if you are going to use the Spree carb?
