Alright I'm a bit confused on the drill bit vs jet size vs hole diameter. I have read that stock jet is approximately #70 which is approximately 0.7mm= 0.028mm right? I also read that leaning it out makes it a bit smoother and might help my 4 stroking. So if i want to close the hole then I should use a smaller jet- perhaps a 65. So as jet size increases, the hole size increases? I take it this is the opposite since as drill sizes increase the hole is smaller (ex #70 is smaller than #65).

Appreciate the clarification as I am just confused.

ya higher the bit number the smaller the hole i bought my really tiny bits at hobby lobby by going to the #80 i totally got rid of the top end 4 stroking and increased response an acceleration all thru the band. you can google bit size versus bit number and you will find a chart

So bit diameter decreases as # increases. Are Jets the opposite and actually increase in size as the # increases. I want to buy a couple new (smaller) jets but just don't want to go in the wrong direction.

Yes jet size is jet size, a 65 jet is smaller than a 70 jet. But they do correspond to mm. A 65 jet is a .65mm jet and a 70 jet is .70mm.

Here is drill chart for reference.

I guess its mostly trial and error. but at 3-4 bucks a piece its nice to have a jumping off point. I read another thread that said he went down to a #65 jet at 1200 and could have gone one more down so i guess im starting at #62. We will see, thanks for the help, I'll let you know how I make out. I also ordered a Dellorto carb 14-14. Any experiences with these?
