I am putting the 350 top end on my 79 250E, the bike had 2R8 barrels but 1A0 carbs, I assume that makes no difference as I'm changing the top end? is it worth putting 2R8 slides in and where should I start with jetting? its got standard airbox currently with all snorkels but wonder if they should be removed??
Second question, I want to get expansion chambers, so should I be looking for 250 or 400 ones? will there be much difference in performance with one over the other? Thanks.
chambers are more related to stroke, so go for250/350 ones.
as far as carbs.. depends its sort of a Hodge podge. id baseline wirh 250 jetting but up the main by 3 or 4 sizes from there.
