Haha! In all seriousness, if switching from the carbs you currently have to another brand makes a tremendous difference, you either had buckshots or what you had weren't tuned very well. The 3 or 4 brands most of us use work really well once they're setup. The reason I went with BlackJacks initially was that(like Chuckie mentined in another thread) I wanted to give Art's COMPLETE package a fair chance. It would be difficult to ever know what a builder is capable of if you didn't really do all they recommended. After using them for several years I would say they are as good or better than anything on the market. Now THAT really is all I have to say.:wave:

I tried buckshots about 5 years ago when the ski was set up as a limited race ski...... never got them tuned out. paid $100.00 for the pair and sold them for about $300.00-400.00..

Current carbs are Team Scream modified........ Stuck them on and never touched the adjustments for 3 years............

If you remember my original setup was Full TLR with the single....... It worked like he said it would........ Just did not like running up the lake. hence the change to the duals...

I briefly threw on some Novi's last summer, but the jetting was way off. did not feel like fooling with it since my riding time was so short then.

Chris has some BJ's that I may throw on to to see.........

Not to mention Blackjacks offer a good value. Well priced used, not sure about new.

Just call man.

I think they are about 250-260ish new from WPS. I don't know how much extra he charges (If any) to rejet them for your application.

PFft... that aint no team scream.

What is special about having Team Scream order them for you? I could be wrong, but I don't think Team Scream actually changes anything on the carbs except for the jetting and what not. From what I understand, the stock 46 is a good carb from the shelf.

So what is it about the blackjacks that necessitates the need of a special intake? I have an aftermarket Mikuni made for 46's... would that work?
