   After so much effort.......so many bike shops and wasted time, I finally found the right guy to send my Girl to. I had to send it to Ottawa but man I am so glad I did. Len Burtrand , whom I bought Snowy from (CanD's new adopted sister) took her in and made her sing like never before. Now CanD is finally ready for ..........well ........anything and everything .........I am so looking forward to getting out there again and meeting up with ya'll. It's been too long. Have a listen.......isn't that beautiful  :cray:

"corrected 139.3 horsepower and 90 ft lbs of torque"

Is that in Canadian units? At current exchange rates, it would equal 107.3 horsepower and 69.3 ft lbs American.  :rofl2:

Very good Kev!  Randy found the same thing with the 1380 when he went to the dyno....waaaay lean on the mid range....off the scale lean. yikes!

For the FJ'ers with big engines...lift those needles!

We ended up with the needles fully raised and 127.5 mains (42.5 pilots 160 airs)......what did you end up with Kev?

Hey Pat.... first of all I want to tell you how much I am looking forward to seeing you at the WCR.... You were the first one here to really make me feel truly welcome..... and steer me in the right direction with CanD. Thank you my brother. As for those numbers you were inquiring about..... Are..... 139.3 horses and 91 lbs of torque at the wheel.  Should be a real fun ride now

  "I knew that's what you meant....... :mocking: ..... anyway.....these are the other numbers...... :mail1:  Mains are now 140's instead of 135. I never touched the pilots because they were sized correct with the pilot idle mixture screws out 2.25 turns and it idling at 13.2 AFR. I had to lift the slide needles 3 times! to get the mid range rich enough. the clip is in the bottom groove and even had to add a small shim to get rid of the lean spot." Len Burtrand...... Richmond Motorsport

......so glad I had it tuned on a dyno........Len was saying it was not ride'able when I brought it in.......and not tunable without a dyno !!!
