50-1 correct. No harm in going a little richer, but is unnecessary unless you do extreme duty . Looks like a G-3 its on. Nice. I have a 700 DR waiting for me to fix my G-3.

Good looking motor Halcyondays! How about some photos of the G3?

I ran 24:1 while I was breaking in my '63 850 (first 10 hours), now running 50:1. This direction came from my 1963 operator's manual.

Very nice combo. I have a 62FGS 700 on my 62 Lone Star Fleetwood B)

I run a little richer than 50:1
This photo is one when I just brought her home.
It needs some TLC now before it's ready to run again.
