I have an overhauled O-360-A1A for my RV-8 and had installed a Rotec TBI. I have not flown yet and decided to go with a carb instead of the TBI. My installation is plumbed for the fuel inlet on the right side (as sitting in the plane). I just received an overhauled MA-4-5 part number 10-3878 carb. That is the one recommended by the mechanic who did the overhaul on the engine.
The carb came with the fuel inlet on the left side (as sitting in the plane). Can it be switched to the right side? It looks symmetrical. I haven't found a manual on line yet but from what I have found it looks like there is a filter screen at the inlet.
Thanks,
