Terry here is a mounting template for the 61
It might help you out

Thanks man, that will save some time for sure. I'm actually kinda anxious to try out the non-crushing plywood mount idea that I have brewing. I'm going to make one for a DA100 / DLE111 to test out for myself as well.

No problem, I think they will work great much better than regular stand-offs

For jetpainter,where did you find those carb arms?unless you made them by yourself?

I made them myself. I made some out of wood to test the geometry then when I was satisfied I cut some out of aluminum with my scroll saw.

By chance,would you have the template?

Sorry I'm afraid I don't. The best I can offer you is a picture I took during the process. I also rotated the carb 180 degrees on mine to make it line up with my throttle servo.

PSP mfg. sells arms for the GP 61. You grind off where the shafts are peened over and pull the short arms off. Both shafts are 3/16", so one of the arms needs drilled out to .188" diameter. The new arms have two set screws so they will hold with some red lock tight. The arms are not drilled for a clevis so you do what ever your favorite is. Its still a small space to connect, but it can be done with a forward choke rod.

I've used the psp ones, they are very nice.
