Wax, maybe I could pick your brain a little here too... just looking for a new starting point.
I have to pull my carbs tonight to see what size jets, popoff etc I have in them, but here is my setup and problem:
mild ported 701cc 62t cylinder
64x t'd & w'd crank in 62t cases
ADA girlded head w/37cc domes
Type 4 FPP dry pipe
solas 14.5/18
carbs - twin 44mm minkuni red tops
super mad top end, crappy bottom end. She does not feel like she's lean or loading up on bottom end, just that there's nothing there for a few seconds, then all of the sudden i get a huge burst of accelleration. I mean, she doesn't just sit there at bottom end, but there is no snap, no quick accelleration from the start... it takes a few seconds to kick in.
I've been messing with the low speed adjuster screws for several tanks of gas now, and have made it worse and better, but not where is should be... not even close!
The ported cylinder came from ebay (adrenaline racing did the porting). Any thoughts about this... maybe the port job was not good?
Like I said, I'm going to pull the carbs tonight and see what size jets etc I have in there, as I can't remember from when I built the motor over the winter.
But I am just looking to get a decent starting point and then I can go from there. I'll post tomorrow the current carb set up specs...
BTW, these carbs came off another superjet running a 701 motor with this dry pipe on it, and it ran awesome... which is why i never bothered to change any of the jetting.
