BansheeBrian Posted August 8, 2004 Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 The motor idles like a dream and the top end is insane but theres a big hesitation in the midrange. I thought about raising the needle and see if that covers it.The hesitation is roughy at 1/3-1/2 throttle.I need to shoot out of the hole immediately for hillclimb competitions. Any suggestions?

locogato11283 Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 ive got the 4mill stroker set up with the 12 port, not the full drag. i run hillclimbs with mine. mines still got a little hesitation but its not too bad. whats your jetting out of curiosity?? have you seen any of my hillclimb videos?? you might like them since you are into climbing. you have any video of climbs out your way??

BansheeBrian Posted August 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 I know damn well that this engine revs through my 15/40 sprockets in a hurry.Theres alot of freakin power in this motor! I think Jim started me out with the 48 pilots and 170 mains.I will check tomorrow.I believe the mains need to be a little leaner for the pro-circuits.These carbs are a dream to work with. Yeah Loco you would love the hillclimbs here in the northeast. Theres a few of them that are held at ski resorts and the climbs are 800ft!

locogato11283 Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 dude, i was runin 14 and 15 tooth sprockets and it wasnt runnin all that great. then i got a 17 tooth the other day and it runs soo much better. im launching in 1st on the concrete, and 2nd in the dirt. give it a try, i bet yours will react the same way mine did. im gonna run either a 16 or the 17 front at my hillclimb on the 22nd. it should make a big difference. when is your climb? i can let you know how the high gear works out so you can get one if you want. im bettin that it will be so much better. thats the same jetting i started with too. i ended up at 175 main, 48 pilot, needle in the middle. mines got a little bog so i think im gonna raise the needle up a notch and see what happens. later man.
