[QUOTE="joedrum, post: 137206, member: 98"] next is the secondary .....it seems like for the 32-32 dft carb the 60 idle jet in the secondary is fine ... on the 32-34 dft in hooch it is 80 idle let ...but anyway 32-32 seems to be 60 is good ..i certainly cant see anything smaller working good but one never knows and it pretty hard to really test this good except on ride tests where cruising at speed and slight secondary opening is where you are at ...or if you go top performace mode for carb like me you have modified the carb progressive linkage to come in earlier to mod it to a more performance carb as oppose to economy carb .....hooch and jyd are both done this way and come in about 1/2 throttle position instead of the 2/3 position of stock dft .... anyway with the 160 air bleed in the secondary as oppose to the 220 ...you have increased the gas feed to the secondary already and you dont necessarily need a big air bleed here with the oldwing motor as the higher rpm has really bought in the air big time and gas flow is the biggest thing on the table to get the secondary working good the jyd biuild at this moment is at 140 gas jet along with the 160 air bleed ... this is night and day difference from the stock set up of 95 gas jet and 220 air bleed huge difference ... actually if you cant get good secondary in no load condition you will have no chance under load ...... so you want to work here good in no load position .... rev hard big time when secondary kicks in as before you want air box off and while kicking in secondary you want to be able to look into carb and check for raw gas ...this is the spot that this will happen the most in the dialing in ...if you pass this test here you are getting really close in dialing in ...
