Rods!!!! And Hanger!!!!

I recycled my Q-bog from my LG4 and put it on my new 355.

The stock rods & hanger were:

Primary: 43K double taper
Secondary: CH
Hanger: G


I also have these:

Prinary: 49M
Secondary: DP
Hanger: L


Out of what I have listed, what should I use on the mild 355? I'm looking for performance.

I'm thinking about using 49M, DP & G

HELP!!!

Eh...... yeah, that's about the best you can do with what you got.

I'd really recommend you spring for a set of DR secondary rods, however. They'll work a lot better with a 350.

Primary rods- got a question. Are we talking about a non-computer controlled QJet? I assume we are.

If so, forget the 49M's- go with the 43s. 49s are gonna be really really lean unless you step the primary jet up about 4 sizes.

Another question- what primary jet you running?

Thanks for the response, I think you hit the nail on the head dude. I upgraded the primary rod, but forgot to change the primary jet. This means the new rod was completely plugging the jet on idle... If I switch to a bigger jet with this new rod, it should give me what I need I think.
