Is getting the new fuel nozzle a reasonable possibility for the 2013 ( or earlier) carbs. We have?

Yes, and I'd recommend it. We're still working out the details of the retrofit package, we may have another improvement to go with it so stay tuned.

Is this available for retrofit? If so, when and how mich?
new magnesium accessory case that accepts a spin-on oil filter. The Company will include a thermostatic oil cooler bypass valve (vernatherm) as standard equipment in 2014. Together, these improvements reduce net engine weight by 1.5 pounds.

Any progress on this yet, and "the other" improvement? Like to do something productive while waiting for new tail wires.

The intake upgrade item should have been hidden from you guys, oops
I am very close to being able to offer this for sale. I do not want to promise anything, but soon, very soon.
There will be several options for this.
1. Just the nozzle
2. a new Marvel with the Nozzle.
3. Just the intake sleeve
4. the full meal deal.
The nozzle installation should take about 1.5 hours labor from start to finish. The sleeve adds no time to re-installing the carburetor. This is the least expensive option, and should be the
Your carburetor can also be sent to Marvel for installation and flow testing. Overhauled units will be available if needed.

Since Marvel developed the perforated nozzle it is their technology and it won't be offered for the Avstar carb. We really don't know if it will fit or not. There will be an exchange program though for those with the Avstar carbs. We made the perforated nozzle standard for the 2014 model year changes, effective s/n 294.
There is another improvement for the carburetor systems we'll be announcing shortly as well, I expect most who would be interested in the nozzle would also be interested in the new widget so we're working up a package. We expect to have a flyer on the whole package and various options soon. We've all been fairly preoccupied with the SA0009 issue but should have that behind us soon.
