Uh... this would be the Bugeye? With what carbs?
H1 carbs I recommend bushing the bodies and using standard 
shafts.  HS2 and beyond can use oversize.
Standard size for both shafts is .248"   Oversize is +.010"  I 
STRONGLY recommend using a reamer.
Why not use oversize on an H1 you ask?
Because then you have to oversize the throttle linkage stuff....

Vern.... Again, this is NOT the 79 Midget mentioned in your 
signature, is it?  LOL
