I see those jet sizes listed for the carbureted kits. 150HP

43lb of FP and jets 65/38 is a 125HP setting.

What kit number do you have?????

I'm confused. (not unusual). When I look up that kit I find a 4 or 6 cylinder kit with no reference to V8 jetting. I'm not familiar with those kits as I have used the plate behind my TB.

Regardless, they usually set those kits "rich" for safety. When I started using my kit I just kept increasing the NOS jet until I got it dialed in.
Unless you have a WB O2, you will need to check the plugs.

When I get out to the shop today, I will check my jet sizes. They are NOS so I "assume" they will be relevant. Remember my kit uses an annular spray bar. I think it was an 05151 kit. Dude, it's been over 10 years ago. LOL

My system has a 47/70. Those are the jets I used and I am not saying that those are the jets you should use. I'm just trying to give you a reference. There are many factors in affect here.

The 07006 kit uses 65/38 nitrous/fuel jets for the 125HP setting. That seems very reasonable to me. As I have mentioned, I believe that the 63/71 you listed earlier was for a carb at 5-9 psi NOT 43psi that is listed for the Sniper 07006 jets.
I hope this helps, (disclaimer) don't trust anything I have written. It's your car, not mine.
