We went with the stock jetting and 1/2 turn on the air screw to start with I need to spend some time tuning it in the near future but I feel like it’s pretty close

Stock on that is a 35 pilot and a 240 (?) main? I'm trying to nail down the jetting on my 79 with both a 32 and a 34 TM carb. 32mm with the stock pipe, and 34mm with the Jemco pipe. Head is milled .5mm and I will run 30:1 mix of T2 with 92 pump. Are you running the stock stator or did you go with a PVL?

I’m fairly sure I used a 30 pilot and 240 main. I will double check

I am actually working my way into builds full time. I appreciate the nice words man. I have done a handful of customer builds and really enjoy it.
