Default 351 and Pumper installed!!

So I received my pkg from Bill Blue last week and decided to dive into it today.
Took me longer to disassemble and mess around with throttle cables then the actual install. The carb is a very tigh fit, and I had to tuck the wiring harness tightly to the frame in order not to interfere with the throttle linkage.
So when the moment of truth came.....it fired right up on the first crank, and all I had to do was raise the idle a touch, I'm getting a slight deceleration pop, so I might be a touch on the rich side but the increase in power didn't disappoint.
Wheelies are now effortless in 1st, 2nd, and I think 3rd will raise with a little persuasion. I wanted to do one mod at a time to feel the difference, but decided to finish it off since my hands were dirty!
Kudos to Bill, this kit is basically plug and play!

So, are you going to do the fast break in/fast bike method?

Yup! I've never babied my engines, and they always ran great!

Default Update

Had a great trail ride on the weekend and i'm really happy with the power difference, it needed a little fine tuning on the jetting which I did today, down to 40 on the pilot jet, and up to 145 on main, purrs like a kitten now and throttle response is snappy.
