    I think you have to drill yours out dude. You're better off buying a Weber if you can afford $300.

    nope the only jet you can change easily is the air correction jet... you can go from a 65 to a 60 and that will give you a little more gas.

    But you'll have to find a 60 air correction on a stock carb that has one... if you already have a 60 then don't worry about it.

    The next step would be to drill the main jets
    block the accelerator pump bleed cannal and polish the barrels.
    I'm working on a few newer mods but at the moment I'm in need of a spare top hat since my drilling went a bit too far.
    If you drill the jets chances are you'll need to use the air jet controller since a 60 air correctiojn jet is too small for a larger main... you can add a 100 air correction jet by doing a few things to the top hat gasket and running a vacuum line from one port on the carb to the other. i won't go into detail at the moment.

    well you can't just drill the hole larger... and it's fairly hard to find drill bits in the size you need. I would hold off on it for a while unless you feel confident enough to tackle the job yourself.

    i drilled my primary jet to 1.2mm.
    it does nicely.
    i have my old carb redrilled to 1.6 primary and 1.8 secondary and it was way too much.
    I think stock secondary is 1.6
    do a search on redrilling the carb and you will find some good info mike gave me.
