[QUOTE="Bill Thomas, post: 102211, member: 485"] I found with Dellorto 36mm Pumper type, The main jet size is smaller than we are used to with other Carb's. I was only running 165 main jet when timed at over 140 mph on my Vincent Special Road Bike. I also had to use the float valve out of a 40mm type Carb' to pass enough petrol above 110 mph. I bought a Moto Guzzi hand book to get an idea of what jets I would use. If anybody knows what Bike would use Ben's Non Pumper type Carb, That may help. I would take a File to Ben's Slide !!, But only if I had another one !!. Cheers Bill. [/QUOTE]
