Now that's what I call an "Extreme Makeover"... :laugh:

Looks good, but how can that 1835cc breathe with those tiny 34 FRDs?

You need 35 mm venturis good to 6000 rpm
You need 135 main gas jets

What are you running?

Check before you lean out and burn it up!

well i got the duel Dellroto 34's from Kymco.
I was told they were on his daily driver "1835cc"
so the jetting should be close.. Im trying to find a manual for them

Only thing real difrence was he had a Kymco header
I got the A1 performance Sidewinder.. I had it shorten up 2"
The first time it was rubbing on my tire..
I guess my axles are 24.75"
& the CompUfire pointless

Today I tested my Fuel pressor..
I found 3 leaks (My first Motor/car project)
My fittings just needed to be snugged up a bit..
My Fuel Press. was reading 9lbs..
I was told/read that 3-5 is the norm..
So i got a Bugpak ajustable Fuelpree regulator..
Good thing they didnt tell me the fittings were not in the package I could have finished up. :rolleyes:
I added some new pix..
Ill post up more as I go..
Peace Troy

Did you build the internals or just do the bolt on stuff?
Jetting will depend on comp/ratio, heads/flow, cam, exhaust flow, etc. If the bottom end is new set the timing static, crank it untill you have oil press before sarting it and then take it to 2500 or better for the fist 25-30 min. for cam break-in. Keep your ears open for noises. Do you have gauges?
