If you are still using the power-jet carbs, don't even bother. The carbs do not function properly with out the aixbox.

If you insist on using filters, at least use K&N's. The uni-filters will collapse under load.

Hey not trying to play devils advocate here but what is wrong with a set of 38 mm carbs and filter pods ?? Clay were you meaning that you had plans on runningthe stock power-jet carbs ?? If so, yeah what the other guys said ! but if you change to a different carb set up there are nothing wrong with running pods....

Just a nightmare to get it right. If you start lean, you can count on buying another set of pistons...
