Here's what I've used and my current preference. First, I tried AH rods with a G hanger. Next, DRs with a B hanger. Finally, my preference, CKs with a B hanger. Note the differences in these on the link listed above.

JamesC, what benefits did you get by using a B hanger instead of a G?

Try the above link for a discussion of how the hangers work. To find what's right for your rig, you'll probably have to experiment a bit. The B gave me more 'go.'

Sitting Bull's right--Damon's the man where carbs are concerned. I'll bet a buck, he recommends DRs with a B or G hanger.
