if i was you i would put the needle clip in the middle slot. i would go to 50 pilots too and try that. if the low end is doggy, then go back to 45's or 47.5's. i would also try like 155's and see how it likes it.

What do ya mean when you say the plugs look burnt. Glad to hear you are getting closer to having her dialed. Your pipes are gonna heat up to hot to touch pretty quick. Especially after a hard run. Just warming up I would say in a matter of a minute your gonna feel some good heat.

I may be good then. I was just worried about running hot and melting a piston. I am going to throw a new set of plugs in it today and take it for a rip and see what it does. I will keep younz updated.

I think I finally got it. I took it for a rip today and it ran really good. I ended up with 150 mains and 45 pilots. The needle is mid clip and the airbox snorkle is gone. I only have the air screws out 1/2 turn so I may move up on the pilot and see what happens, but I just wanted to thank all you guys for the help.

I am going to be posting some updated pics of my Shee tomorrow.

 

Thanks again.

Just an update on my jetting situation. I have still been dinking around here and there. I went for an extended right last weekend, and was bogging badly at the start. I turned my air screws out to about 1.5 or 2 turns and it seemed to be alright. but still fairly rich. I checked my plugs and they were dark and a little wet. Yesterday I moved my needle down one spot from the middle clip. This seemed to help a lot and it was running very strong. Today I went out and it hesitated to start. It actually fired on the first kck, but would bog and it sounded like it was sucking air, and then it would shut off. I choked it for about 5 seconds and it was good. Ran pretty strong, but it seemed to be less strong later in the run. It was also only about 50 degrees here today as apposed to about 65-75 like before. Would the needle move change it this much? Do you think I am still safely rich so I don't do any damage?
