Jeff,
I think that's the way it is with a 1600 engine, mine is a 1600 DP and I put a
bigger jet in the pict 34 (130mm) didn't run any better (maybe a little
cooler). When I get the new engine in my bus, I'll let you know how it runs the
hills (inviting myself over to Austin here :) ) but I think your bus should
runs hills a little better, don't you have reduction boxes? That's make a huge
difference with splittles other than that I think we need to look at a 1776
with Dual carbs to stomp on the hills.

I have a carb/gear/tire question.
Running a 1600 single port. Any opinions on size of carb out there? I am
currently running a 30 pict 1.
It runs great in the realitively flat stretchs but really doesn't power much
up a hill. I live in W Austin and there are hills between me and any where I
go. I have the stock 14s, would smaller tires help?
Maybe the answer if alpine gears? If so how much would performance suffer on
flat ground.
