    Carb jetting specs

    I saw a chart a while ago, that showed the stock jet specs for each year and model. I can not remember where I saw this, and it doesn't seem apparent when I do a search of the old posts.
    I am restoring a 79 F. The carbs were so badly trashed inside that I can not read the markings on the jets. I bought K&L kits, but have heard that a lot of the kits have the wrong jets in them.
    Anybody want to take a minute and get me going in the right direction??
    I plan to stick with the stock airbox, Uni filter, and a four into one exhaust, and a Kerker can.
    TIA

    Here is the chart for stock jet sizes and here is the page for Denny's jetting recommendations for non-stock filter/exhaust combinations.

        Hope you got the second half of that, Mike. Looks like you read my first post of that note while I was still editing it to include the second link...

          Got it, thanks.
          Is it the pilot jet that K&L notoriously get's wrong?
          My kits have a 137 main, and a 180 Air, but the pilot jets are not labeled.
