Afternoon.

Have a 98 S1W with stock CV Carb...going to install aftermarket air cleaner ("Big Sucker" - simple round design) by Arlen Ness and probably go with a ForceWinder exhaust.

Question - anyone know what jet/needle sizes I should install on stock CV carb? Do I need to adjust, or, am I "good" as is. Would rather pull carb out now, before installing everything...

Thanks guys.

Sean

Found this in the Knowledge Vault, was from BluzM2--Brad--
Put in a 195 main, a 45 pilot with 2 1/2 turns out on the screw and shim the needle about .040 - .050".
Far simpler, far cheaper and just as effective.

Thanks Jim...appreciate.

Do you know (I searched on Knowledge Vault) if that are the changes to the CV carb needed/commonly installed if an aftermarket air cleaner and exhaust is installed? I already purchased the exhaust/cleaner and am going to install...just want to know if I have to pull the carb out before installing air-cleaner and exhaust.

Thanks - appreciate.

I can pull the jets on my S1 without removal of the carb, kind of a pain, I don't know how much time it actually saves.

CVP deluxe tuners kit, custom jets, 45/195. It includes a new slide spring, slide drill bit, ez adjust mixture knob, bowl screws, velocity emulsion tube, velocity needle, all for about $70. It will run great.

I’d suggest doing the brass inlet elbow too.

Just wanted to say thanks for the input/words of advice - sincerely appreciate you guys taking the time to reply to my question/request.

Going to go with the 195 main + 45 pilot as suggested.

She how she runs in the spring.

Bye for now.
