    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I just don't see how its possible...

A lot of people on the GSResources board have said that if you put pods on the carbs without rejetting it will burn your valves from being too lean.

What I'm thinking is that if you richen the mixture you shouldn't have to worry about being lean right? I mean, after all its just a matter of compensating for the extra airflow right?

Is there something I'm missing?

If you're not going to rejet how will you make the mixture richer :?: In every throttle position including WOT :?:
 
Oh....yeah....crap....

I forgot about that.
The mixture screws only control the idle mixture right?

Okay, I think I get it now.

Thank you,

Thanks Robin, i'm glad you liked the photos. I was happy till I got the carbs on the engine and realized that the airbox wouldn't fit in after it. I guess i'll wait to get it running when I get my stage-3 Jet kit and pod filters. There ain't no way that the carbs can fit in there with that stupid airbox in the way.

:wink:
