Have you run it with this jetting? Looks like a decent starting point to me.

I run 250 main, 60 power jet and 25 pilot in my Imola with Franspeed Race, goes well.

Carb clears the panel but no room for a filter.

Morning, Rennie.
What kind of mileage are you using the 30? thinking off future project, my TS1 with a 35 is fast as but shocking on fuel but good fun.
Cheers Shane.
