4.5mm auxiliary chokes

45 pump jets
f15 emulsion tubes
165 main jets
230 air correctors
65f8 idle jets
4.5 psi fuel

Btw, be careful with the new batch of weber jets. The stamped # on these jets are bogus. For example, if it says 65, it is smaller than a 65 and your car will run like ****. Someone here mentioned it before but I didnt notice it until 2 weeks ago while tuning another car.

compare it with other jets or use a reamer to verify the accuracy. Thats how I did it and I just drilled them out.

What size chokes are in the carb? Look in the 'top' of the carb and you should see numbers cast in the venturis. Old weber rule of thumb to start with is 4x's the choke dia for mains and add 50 to that air corrections. Rotarys like it a little richer so go a little over the 4x rule on mains and a little under the plus 50 on airs.
