Awesome… have you checked and set timing, valve clearance. you should do that before you final sync and jetting

This is what I use

Oh yea valves been done timing is good I put a dyna electronic ignition on it last year. I have two sets of sync gages one is the needle kind round gage and a motion pro liquid filled but I think the motion pro needs new fluid or o rings cause I don’t think it works right. I did a bench sync and vacuum sync when I first put them on. But those caps were in place so maybe that messed the sync up cause it pops a little now at idle didn’t do that before with the caps on. Or I don’t think it did anyway. U like that sync gage ( user friendly)?

Yes I like the carbtune pro…

Happy to hear your on the down side of your tuning...

I just picked up a set of 28 pumpers... wont get to rebuild for a while... let us know how they work... I think the pump helps off idle hard acceleration by richening up the air/fuel ratio

I will definitely keep y’all up to date on everything, yep I got lucky on the pumpers all I did was clean them and replace the spring and diaphram and they work didn’t have to mess with linkage it squirts a small stream right beneath the slides when a pump the throttle

With pods/open carbs you need those Air corrector jets fitted to fill the low end fuel gap and cure the lumpy bottom end.
Make sure you use quality free flowing pods K&N etc as the cheaper Emgo type etc are actually restrictive and will drown the motor with an over rich mix.[/quote]

Thanks for this info Zed! I'm buying a set of your machined air corrector jets for my stock 26's with pods.

Yes! I make these at home as a hobby in small batches to order for the UK Z1 owners club members and list any surplus online for non members searching for them.
I hope you don't feel there was any deception and thought this was widely known on KZR as there have been quite a few threads and discussions on their function etc.
They do the job they are designed for and I would never recommend them unless they were really needed whether I was the supplier or not.
I only make these In the capacity of an enthusiast to help fellow Z owners at minimal cost in my retirement and any small profit goes back into materials for the next batch to keep the supply going.
Sorry if there was any misunderstanding, it never crossed my mind especially with the Q&A's that you didn't know I was the seller.

Absolutely no problem zed, I just thought I looked like a fool for not knowing who I was talking too lol. But no deception no problems. I’m new to this forum and didn’t realize yet who were suppliers. But it ain’t no problem I can’t wait to get them and see the difference in the bike.
