Re: 4g32 Dual Mikuni Jetting Advice

Your getting confused with enrichment jets and air bleed jets for primary and secondary circuits. The main jet and secondry jets in the bottom of the float bowels meters the amount of fuel taken from the bowel to the venturi.

Re: 1973 Galant 16L lowering

Forget about trying to get 3/4 inches drop on a galant, with wide wheels they will be sitting hard on the guards and the rear diff housing will be on the bump stops, not to mention it will drive like shit. Mine is lowered 2.5 and there is only about 20mm free travel till it hits bump stops, which is...

As for lowering in the back you have two options, lowering blocks of get the leafs reset, i would reccomend the second option. For the front if you wont to go lower than ...

Lol! Forget about it, the pump your reffering too is 35+ psi opperating pressure, webers need no more than 5 max. Sounds like your idea is like trying to reinvent the wheel. Why not go with webers and a elwctronic dizzy out of a gn siggy?
