Hello guys I am new to this forum and needed a starting point on my main jets in my carbs.  I will be running long Uni filters with an open Vance and Hines header.  This engine isn't in a bike, but a custom frame puller.  Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

Just a guess, but I think it means that the FJ600 mill will be "pulling" a custom frame...never heard the term used before, but I kinda like it.

What happened to the rest of it?

I figured a frame puller was a device for straightening the frame of cars or such that had been bent in accidents.  Your idea makes more sense though.

For mains, something between 115 and 125 somewhere, depending on what's been done to the motor and fuel quality and elevation and corrected elevation and induction path and...... The FJ mill seems pretty relaxed about running pretty well on a decent range of jetting for the main; the typical butt dyno isn't going to tell the difference.
