Re: The Official John Lee Jr Thread

Jets are in and the cold start was just fine. 130 main jet on the primary and 155 main jet on the secondary. Now for a week or so of drivin to see how it performs...starting tonight with a R-o-C Coke Cola run!

Went ahead and tweaked the aluminum carb hat on the table saw. Just screwed it to the fence and buzzed it in a circle across the carbide blade to open up the air flow and expose the filter. A bit of sanding with 220 to clean it up and smooth the edges and a rub out with Brownells fff compound to remove some of the oxidation without making a high shine...Really needs a K&N in there now that I can see the filter. But it shows off the carb a bit better and eliminates a bit of restriction in the air flow. Should be able to hear the secondary kick in now too!






I gotta find a better top nut though...maybe a Chevy Bow Tie.
