Re: what jets for 1985 fxstc ?? opinions please.
Different locations around the country will dictate jet sizes. Generally speaking, depending on any other engine work done to the motor, cam, exhaust, etc., he probably should be running around a 45 or a 48 slow speed. Sometimes its a guessing game unless you have the good fortune of having a dyno available. Jets for the most part are pretty cheap which allows you to buy a few different sizes, replace and test drive and see which set gives you the best performance.
