you'll need to remedy your airbox cracks and vacuum leak(s) BEFORE any jetting changes, or you're chasing your tail.

Ok, thanks. I was told WD40 as a leak tester. Any thoughts on this as I don't feel comfortable sprying carb cleaner on already dry boots.

I adjusted them, but can recheck. Is that what you are referring to, or pulling the head?

FWIW, I set the valve clearance at .003", a bit on the loose side.

I'm building a brat style CB350 four, and I want to put pods on my carbs and I know that I need to change my jets. Where can I find jets that would work with my bike?

I'm in the same boat with my CB350F, cept I have a new Delkevic 4 into 1 exhaust.

Can't get it to run right, and pulling the carbs so many times is a pain.

So watching and trying everything you are, and with no good results,
If it ain't raining, I'm riding.....~~{iii}?~~prost

If it sounds like I know what I'm talking about, it's because I cut and pasted from someone else.
