Brent,
Firts off thanks for sharing that with us. I have been wondering about doing the mod on my Berg 42 specials. They did not have that mod done to them? All of the other Berg mods are there though. Ground off numbers,nuts on adjuster screws,gross jet valves etc..

Brent,
Was just thinking. Seems like JB Weld will not hold up for long term use when used with ethanol based fuels. Wondering if it is possible to use solder instead? Not sure if you cal solder the brass to aluminum? Any feedback from anyone will sure be appreciated.

Por15 por patch is gas/ethanol immune, much better choice than epoxy.

I have to admit I find the cornering 'issue' fascinating. I drove my notchback with DCNFs up twisty mountain roads, on slalom course, up Pikes Peak, down the drag strip and never had an issue with sloshing. These were as made with just jetting changes for my 2110. I ran a logging o2 sensor for all of it and never saw evidence.

Results may very, no guarantee implied or suggested.
