Remote NVA for Fox 35#0 source
A while back I ordered a remote needle valve assembly for a Fox 35. I haven't installed it, because it looked like a pretty "cheesy" set up. The bracket that attaches to the back plate has only one hole, which will, I think, provide an attachment that can never stay in place with vibration, etc. The spray bar doesn't seem to have any way to firmly lock into place. My thinking is that I'm much better off with the old "tried and true" assy that comes with the engine. Heck, a little "prop-rash" on the nuckles is part of the fun! Does anyone out there have any experience with one of these?

I got a couple of them that I would have given you. They are fairly easy to keep tight when mounted on wood instead of the engine. They were really intended to be used on combat style stuff, but were a mite leaky for that application.
The lag on starting and between adjustments leave a little to be desired. In other words, I didn't like them.

Remote NVA on a suction system is never a good idea IMHO.
