Hey guys i've been trying to nail down my carb tuning after installing mikesxs pods with stock exhaust. I must have taken off the carbs at least 30 times changing jets, adding washers, ect. and still cant get it done. I'm currently at 145 mains (but started at 140-147.5), 2 washers on the needle (i believe equal to one clip position raised) 42.5 pilot with about 3.5 turns on the mixture screw. I seem to have good (than again I dont really know what good is) pull at the low to mid RPM's (1/4-3/4 throttle) but when I go to about 6k RPM then jamb the throttle open it pulls then stops and then surges (signs of leanness). Here's the catch my plugs are carbon BLACK as can be and when I take off the carbs there is even a little pool of gas in the intake boots. My float level is dead on at 26mm. I want to know what you guys think as well as your current setups and jetting. I know it changes with many variables (weather, height, etc.) but I still would like to have some clue. Thanks in advance. 1980 special II (BS34 with brass floats)
