Sorta. the 53-58 S/STU uses the same cylinder,but a restrictor plate was used in the carb mouth. The i.d. of the intake is right at 13/16" (.812) But from 59 and on, the intake port was reduced to 5/8" (.625) i.d. to make it harder for the kids that bought the bikes to cheat. Mutt ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- is the difference in horsepower between a st and stu only in the carburetor???????????? or more to it.. |
