bluebanshee98 Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 At least a 27.5 pilot. Usually fmf's like 30's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evans Ward Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 FMF recommends 30 pilots in their instructions when you purchase their pipes. I really think either size pilot will work with tuning with AS adjustment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each setup will want something different depending on the build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 It specifies stock motor with intake I'm pretty sure.Thank you for pointing that out special, I see it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booxzzy Posted August 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 tnx guys,i really appreciate your input,have to check for air leaks again and float level cause it seams like I'm getting way to much fuel all around(spiting unburned fuel out of exhaust) float needles and seats have been already changed,i also removed boost bottle and plugged the holes for good.

fastbanshee8 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 How many turns open are your air mixture screws? They should be open 1.5-2.5 turns, and make sure both are set the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evans Ward Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Thank you for pointing that out special, I see it now. Yep- stock engine is what I was referring to and by looking at the OP's specs. Did you verify float level is within spec? Seems it should be about 21mm if memory serves me right?
