So, I've finally got all the performance upgrade pieces assembled and the short-block ready to get machined on my '80 100hp. Now, I'm just curious about jetting. Here's what is getting added.

High-compression heads
Large throat (1-5/16") carbs
Boyesen Reeds
Bubble-back exhaust (if I can find one)

I'm kind of concerned about blowing out the Boyesen reeds with the wrong jetting given all the modifications. So, I'm thinking one plan may be to dial in the jetting w/ the stock reeds, then put in the Boyesens and enrichen by a couple of sizes. If someone here has a good starting point to work from I'll skip that step.

Ideas?

The only jet that affects the Boyesens is the idle jet. Just go 2 or 3 sizes richer and don't worry about it. If you're too lean in the mid or top rpm it won't affect the reeds at all. But pistons are a different story.........

Good advice on the idle jets. I plan on starting with the 115 jets and having a good time with the jet drills until it gets rich enough.

Although, maybe starting with the 135 jets and swapping down is a better plan given lean risks in a two-stroke.

No drilling. That changes the ramp angles and can make it flow less rather than more. And it changes the rifeling too.

Well then, no drills.

135 jets to start and swap down it is.

What did you do to the intake? Which one are you using?

I haven't done anything to the intake yet.

You have some suggestions?
