some people on here say that you should just figure out what size jet to use and buy that jet from the factory...they say the jet kit comes with alot of stuff you dont need and from what I hear the DYNOJETS dont flow as good as those from the factory. ask around and someone will know about what size jet you should use....plus you will save like $30
eustis you say get oem jet yet it says u have dyno jet. do you not like the dyno jet, or oem is just as good and cheaper. i dont want something that is not as good just cause cheaper
If you aren't going to snorkel it, the dyno jet would work okay, but why spend the money?? We bought the Dyno jet after the new ehaust and a snorkel, but could never get it operate right. Went with a factory 135, I
think Carl got both for $5. Now we have 2 Dyno jet kits in the garage that aren't being used....wish we would have saved that $60.

The 450s have adjustable needles stock as well, Which will come in the Jet kit. The new needle will have a slightly different taper. Plus a new carb spring. These are things you can live without though.

When I got my jet kit it didnt come with another spring. But I took that kit out and just did the OEM and it make more of a difference than the kit.

The 135 is the way to go. I noticed a differance pretty much right away.
thanks for the info ill go w/the 135
Be careful with the screws on the bowl cause they are very soft and will round out.
as far as the spring goes just cut about a inch and a half to 2 inches off of it like eutis says and that should take the place of that.
