My birthday came early. I got a 650 double pumper. Bye-Bye Edelbrock. I think the stock jetting is 67/73. What does everbody run as far as jetting? I won't be able to put it on for about a week, and I was just curious. Also, how many of you have to make some more adjustments, like pump cam, squirters, etc?P.S. I know every engine is different, so I know that just because you had to adjust doesn't mean I will, and vice-versa.

hey, i just finished jetting my 650dp and its not hard but you need to take the car to the track to tune it. assuming you have everything else right on the carb, jet for the best mph on your timeslip. be sure that you keep EVERYTHING ELSE constant. be sure the timing is right FIRST. run the same grade of fuel as always to find this. you are conducting a scientific experiment, so you must not touch anything else when jetting. launch the same, shift the same...every time. watch your mph, forget reading the plugs. my 650 came with 67/73's originally, and right now i run 69/75's. this was after several nights of test and tune. ALWAYS KEEP the jets a 6 size spread, front to back. you dont have a race car, dont plug the pv and jet the carb square. start by jetting up 2 sizes (always go 2 sizes at a time) if mph goes up, keep going richer. if it falls, go back from original 2 sizes. keep going whichever direstion seems to work until the mph drops off. then go back to the last setting. very easy. i can help you with other things, but you only asked about jets here. congrats, enjoy the holley.------------------

Was that the issue with the article on how to select a carb? Also, how can I tell about whether or not to adjust the pump cam and squiter sizes?
