Have you tried to clip the carb needle up one notch?

I agree that is how it sounds(like its not coming in high enough)..I have already installed the 3little red springs in the clutch..


I did try moving the clip on the needle(up and down) and it was much worse either way..
I have ordered some jets so we will see what effect they have..

What is the engagment of the red springs? I would personally go one set higher and I truely believe that would take care of your problems. With the work that you have done and the pipe you have created a more difinitive power band and you need to get close to that on engagment. You may even have to sit on the tank a little to keep down the front.

I talked with a guy at hetricks again..He said the torsion spring was a 1500 and the three red engagement springs were 2000 rpms and supposedly the stiffest you can get...He said the clutch shoes on the etons were heavy and that I was probably not getting a high enough stall speed even with the red springs...He felt a set of light wieght shoes would fix the problem so I ordered a set...Hopefully that will do it...

I am not saying they are wrong but it really doesn't sound like 2ooo, let us know what happens. This will be good info for a bunch of us.
