I'm planning to buy these two from this site.


Walbro WT-668 Carb - RC use


ADA Billet RC / CY Intake Manifold


Will all these gasket below complete my new carb install?

Can someone post a list of exactly what I should get from gasket to carb and ada billet to custom links for my servo? Show me what I need to get to complete my install with no problem . What kind of servo link mod should I do or get? Can I use my stock linkage? Please let me know racers!

That's pretty much it. You can use the stock linkages. When you get the carb and the intake, do a mock-up install apart from the engine. That is, assemble the air filter base, the carb and the intake on the bench. When you do this, check to see if the carb bolts stick out of the back of the intake. If they do, you'll need to cut them down so they're flush with the back of the intake. If you don't cut them, they won't allow the carb assembly to seal properly.

It's easy to do. Just mark the bolts where you need to cut them, take everything apart and thread the bolts into the stock intake as far as they'll go and cut where you marked them. Now, after you cut them take a dremmel and smooth out the edges of the cut. When you back out the bolts from the intake, the nuts will take care of any tweaked threads. Then, just assemble as normal. Use some blue loctite on the bolts, as well.

Do you know if I will have to cut my screws for my XB or is it just a possiblity?
 
You'll have to determine that. Some you do, some you don't. That's why you want to do a mock-up. If the bolts aren't flush with the back of the intake, you have to cut them.
