If the jets were the problem and was indeed too rich, wouldn't I be seeing black smoke out the exhaust? Also, the fatter I was making this the better it was running.





you wouldn't necessarily see smoke. if you really want to check, drive behind it while someone jumps on it, and see what you see then.

this is what the 1411 lists as stock:

Metering Jets - Primary .113, Secondary .107

and you are at a .116 and .119. it's just hard for me to see that you would need to go that rich. usually ootb carbs, (even though they are calibrated for a specific engine, like a sbc), are set up to run rich to begin with. to have to go that many steps above ootb doesn't seem correct, but who knows? each situation is different.

that will be the most important thing from the dyno is the A/F ratio. also get them to run the engine at 2500 or 3000 in cruise for a minute or so, and get the A/F in cruise mode, so you have an idea of where to go there.

post back when you have the results!
