Darrell:

Thanks much. No more specific questions.
After a springtime worth of tuning, I ended up with 60 main jets and a green spring (I believe that's the intermediate stiffness) in the diaphragm for the secondaries. My next project is to play around with different cams for the accelerator pumps and to fiddle with the shooters themselves. I love fiddlin' with the carbs - sometimes I think I'd be a good candidate for Webers


Chopper:
I have the progressive linkage also. I set it once so that both carbs were opening the same amount simultaneously, and it seemed that part-throttle acceleration was not as smooth. I reset the slider so that the pin is about midway in the slot and it feels better. Another one of those things to fiddle around with until you find a setting to your liking, I guess

Later,
