TORs, tweak the carbs. All for around $800. I was there, a while back, when a new modified SM was being picked up and liked the sound. I'm tempted to order Staintunes instead




I was not happy with the TORs, still too quite and a "slappy" pulse sound. I then bought a pair of stock Speedmaster pipes on ebay for 99 cents. I played with them, and when the tone was deep, they were too loud. I would recommend Staintunes, Speciaty Spares(since you're in Washington) or British Customs Predators. There are video clips on YouTube dot com that have the Predators, and that sound is what I want. But that $800 for the dealer's service will probably not make you happy. Get the SpecialtySpares from Dale for $420 and $35 worth of jets&UNI filter from Brent at NewSpeedmaster and you'll have over $300 left for more goodies. Look at Dinqua's jet calculator on his site - big help.




Skillet,
Thanks for the heads up on the Predators. I might invest in them. However, the Jetting Calculator does not include the Predator Pipes.
Also, does changing the pilot jets and/or shims help? I need to do some more reading.
One other question, with the Freak conversion kit installed, can I still mount the graters?
Thanks
