Question encentric shaft oil jets?
I know you can use a 200 webber jet in place of the ball and spring, but instead has anyone used a holley jet...(easy to get). Thanks

Proabably, but then youd have to machine it to fit right? Why bother? Also why are you gonna do this? I wouldnt do this on a streetcar.

Weber jets cost $4.50 last I checked. You can buy the screw-in competition jets from Mazdaspeed for about half that. I have them in both my race motors.

I've got the Weber jets in mine. Works great. Really easy to do assuming of course your engine is apart.
