Brad
here are my set up.

13-B big street port using GSL-SE internals pin rotors, etc etc. (both engines in the RX-3 and FB have SE internals), GSL_SE flwheel, 4 puck (RX-3), 6 puck (FB) and 3500 lbs pressure plate.

48 IDA
42 or 43 mm chokes**
Idle holder/jet: 120/75
Main Air/Fuel: F2 & F11, 150-175/220-245**
2 1/8 dual exhaust to a magnafow muffler. Yes, there are 3 ft long glass packs but they only lasted less a week. One of these days, I will take them off completely.


**depending on my mood for that day.

about 3500. due to my large ports and large venturies, my low end suck but good for top end. wish I can find my video tape reving the engine past 9500 at standing still.
