    Hi, I’ve been taking a lot of inspiration from this build as you can see from the photos. I was hoping you can help me out with a few questions I have. The first question is I am getting ready to put the carbs back on. What jet sizes did you end up getting to work with the k&n pod filters? I’m going to try 120 mains and the stock pilots. Another question is where did you mount the TCI? I made a little mount but it really isn’t that sturdy the way I have it currently. Last question for now is how did you integrate the lighting kill into it. What wires did you combine in order to kill all lights? I’m not sure if your active anymore but figure I’d give it a shot
