Turning Wrenches / Re: UFO main jetting for vm30s
August 02, 2020, 10:13:27 PM
I install alot of UFOS and on every one regardless of carb size  i cut the slide 1 to 2 mm depending on application and most work well wit a 20 pilot , It does not affect main jet . I actually massage the eyebrows on the bottom for better throttle closure . I also grind a trough in front of the needl jet opening that helps clean up the bottom end a bit as well as cut the needle jet shroud down from 8mm to 4mm . I do that even without a UFO. The new UFOs for the 36 and 38 mm carbs fit better now as I redigned them for Thunder products and over saw the build of them right here where I live. And another good thing is that you dont have to do any grinding inside it to get the cable to be installed .

RB dividers are not bad but he didnt take it far enough to achieve the linear power application. Like a power now drop in does some good but not alot it does nothing to keep velocity up past the slide .

You dont have to believe it works . But as I said I have MANY customers who love them and I offer names and numbers of them If you want to grill them . Just cuz the manufactures dont have it dont mean that it dont work . So what is the after market all about ? I guess since port work on a factory machine must be ultimate also , and pipes , if the after market pipes worked then the factories would have them . This is ridiclous. I guess Smoky Unik and Bill Jenkins , Vic Edelbrock just had marketing scams .

When I instal a intela jet system with dividers the discharge nozzle is below the 3/4 divider and actually contributes to the needle adjustment which is really cool not just wot. And wrong on your tri power theory . I guess you wont really believe it works without trying . We could go on and on , if you dont believe you can ask many of my customers ,

Whats not to follow? Smaller area means higher velocity. When the dividers are full length of carb and get as close to the reeds or intake port all the more effective . It works . How about a tri power 427 corvette with 3 two barrel carbs of 350cfm each that open progressivly totaling 1050 cfm that works well butif you throw on a 1050cfm dominator carb it wont handle it with out falling on its face , BLAH! because the big venturies have low velocity. You would have to creep up on throttle opening as engine speed was able to move enough air to accept the available air . The point is to have atmospheric pressure fill the cylinder or crankcase as soon as possible while keeping the air moving . Fine line .Again the carbs WORK EXTREMELY well. I hears today from anothee vintage race customer witha 1974 yz 250 who love it , no light switch off on but linear and controlable  power.

Just want to mention that venturi dividers are not air smoothers. But velicity increasers , Example on the inlet side or air filter side true the dividers eliminate air tumbling at the back of the slide , yes smoothing air flow and directing it under the slide  BUT! without a venturei divider on the oposite side of the slide air expands to the full size of the venturi thus decreasing velosity . The dividers keep air speed up all the way through . Therefore its like opening four smaller carbs in series making linear power . It allows running bigger carbs with out the down fall of the slow air speed BLAH!  If some one hasnt tried one they have no idea how well it works , I have many customers who would gladly tell you haw pleasred the are with what it does . It has actually been proven to perform better than a exaust power valve . If anyone want to talk to some of my customers give me a call and I will hook you up to talk with them. Many say its the best money they have spent on thier bike .  702-858-9711

Smart or lectron does nothing to make laminer air flow and linear power . A modified VM or PWK with venturi dividers and a intelajet is un beatable in performance . I have also installed venturi dividers in Lectrons . But adjustability with intelajet is awesome plus fuel is discharged atomized fro the nozzle

here is the same manifold I use on Polaris  snow machines. I have used them on Suzuki  Honda cr 250s Bultacos Hodakas and more

very nice work . I have 4 different manifolds that I have made and produced and apply them to many applications with use of different mounting plates Here is another one

I like that . I love reed conversions . I do alot of them here is a manifold I recently made and produced for early Honda elsinore 125s
