      Randy, You are correct. It IS a Vacturi carburetor. The gear diameter is approx 9.3 cm, with 35 teeth.

        Hi Randy, although it’s been a while you might recall the rotary valve on my PR-50 bitsa is also very different from the standard unit. Seems that we have a lot of odd stuff here in Australia.

        Hi David, I note that you live not far from Ballarat in Victoria, Australia. Do you know of a gentleman by the name of Dave Tatti in Delacombe/Ballarat? I’ve often used Dave to reproduce aluminium castings for my Vintage Outboards. He’s very good at what he does!

        Feel free to give me a call if you wish 0488992839. I’m located in Aspendale, about half hour south of Melbourne, eastern side of the Bay.

        Regards
        Spiro
