Dual carbs on a Cyclone
I want to put dual carbs on my 76 440 Cyclone. Where do I start as far as jetting? Same as the Liquifire? How about clutching? Thanks.

Greenxcracer76,
Do you have everything that is necessary for the conversion:
dual carb manifold
dual carbs
dual fuel pump
dual carb airbox
twin throttle cable setup
twin choke cable setup
I would use the 440 liquifire carb specs as a starting point, found in the FAQ section.
The cyclone clutch will work, but the liquifire primary clutch has different weights in it, and a black spring. The liquifire clutch setup as a clutch engagement of 4100-4300 rpm, verses 3500-3700 rpm of the cyclone. The secondary is the same. The gear ratio is the same also.
