What elevation are you at and which Weber? 34 ICH at sea level takes a 165, 3000' and I'd use a 160, 6000' use a 155. With mine, an overdrive, header and shaved head, close to 9:1, and FWH's, I could get up to 21 on the highway.

Hi Yetti,

Altitude does make a big difference to jets. If you're here on the highveld I've got a lest of jets but it's for the Weber 36DCD. What carb are you using?
