Default Re: good article on carb tuning (clem zahrobsky)

It's like you read my mind, Clem.

I have a Demon carb with a big solid lifter cam, and the stench of partially burned hydrocarbons that sticks to my clothes and face like glue tells me that she's running pretty rich.

I'm going to try to tune it myself, thanks for the info!
