Does anyone have a altitude chart that shows which jets you should use? |

Truth be told it changes.
Compression ratio, cam, exhaust system, and air filter stacks, the hight of your velocity stacks, are all in the mix. Then you take the things outside of your control altitude, barometric pressures, temp, humidity, fuel quality. Running EFI is easy, running carbs correctly takes a magician, scientist, and alchemist. I am sure it is documented in one of he many weber books I have some where, but fuel quality has changes since most of these where written. So it would be ball park anyway. Advantage of asking Jake, is he has the info on customer engines he has sent out there, and then any tuning that was required afterward if the customer told him. Much better than us just rolling the dice and saying the chart says this. the only other answer I have is toss it on a dyno and work out the bugs. |

We are planning on installing an air fuel gage and sending unit, but just trying to get some baseline jet informatoin before the project starts. |
