Jetting an IDA on a SP-12A

Hey guys, I have a friend with a rotary bug and we need some help getting the fuel worked out. His setup will be....

Street Ported 12A
MSD 6a running DFIS with Blaster 2's
48IDA downdraft
Holley Reds and a Holley FPR

What jets should we start with on the carb? What fuel pressure should we use?

I have searched but have had a hard time finding specifics.

Thanks for your time.

That's the benefits of SEARCHING.

Not picking on anyone, just the usual soft spoken/big stick approach/post.

It also helps if one stays out of the lounge and visits other rotary forums besides our own. Vintage Rotarys has very knowledgeable and dedicated member base. The Old School guys are serious rotorheads and many have forgotten more about rotarys than many of us can ever hope to learn.
