Just needed an opinion on which ones to use... i know i played with an extra set i got by bending it, and filing the rods, and it made a world of difference... Basically, i have a carb spacer, the air valve door opens almost 90*, and the exhuast is fully done, ever since i did the air cvlve mod, i have a but of bogging.... when i played with the rods and hangers, most of this went away... any suggestions as to which rods and hangers to try and use??? thanx-

If it bogs when they open, try tightening up the air valve spring slightly, like 1/8 turn at a time. If the spring is too loose the valve will just flop open when it should open gradualy in response to the engine's demand for air, which will create a lean condition at the moment you stomp on it.
