Anyways, YES, the jetkit is an excellent source of frustration relief and headache prevention.
The BS34 CV carbs dont actually need the pilots changed out for pod filters, just a serious mixture adjustment.
There will be some flat spot/issues in the low rpm range without a steeper tapered needle, and main jet+needle position changes/experimentation are required. This also depends on the condition of each cylinder as pods makes jetting much more sensative.
I've seen requirements anywhere in between:
Pilots: 37.5 - 40
Needles: (jet kit supplied taper) #2 - #4 clip position
Mains: 135 - 170 (Oiled/non-oiled, cheap to K&N filters)
JETKIT!! YES...come with nice instructions plus tools... :laugh:

I am wondering if I should change the timing since I also put on Vance & Hines drag pipes with an 8 inch baffle stuffed into them.

I can't understand the attraction of pods. They not only hopelessly screw up the running but you lose the rear support for the carbs which will make the intake manifolds fail eventually. I don't get it.Pods :laugh:

well I can.It is an absolute beouthch to get the stock air cleaner box out if u want to work on the carbs,so lots of folks put pods on so they wont have to screw with the stock box.Me, Im old and slow and got plenty of time so removing the box is ok by me.I did stick a K and N filter in mine which is sort of a half-arze compromise I guess.Lol.bj650ed wrote:
