Re:Put the ported on. 7 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
I've thought about the ported manifold, but I just got my carb back together today. By the way Musky I've been riding and tweeking all afternoon, ended up with a 170main, clip 4th grove from top with the PMS 2 1/2 out. Idle is good and runs smooth thru out the throttle ranges with no hesitation. Did the WOT test in 4th gear, the bike still accelerates when I back off and hold but it is steady not anything eratic. I have no backfireing on decel. It is running great but do you think it may be slightly lean enough to worry over?

Careful getting on her hard out of the hole cause I bet she'll lay rubber like an old big block now. Mine did after hogging the manifold out.

Torque! Yee-Haw!

I can tell the difference off the line I was real tempted to see if I could pull the front wheel off the ground. Sure feels like it could
