IMO Brits are excellent craftsmen (if a bit conservative). Over on this side of the pond, things are a bit cheaper, and rgulation is alot more laxed. Alot of the things we get away with here, wouldn't fly in the UK. Anyway, enough about that. As for jetting for that pipe, you can try shimming the carb needles for starters and see how it works. Remember it is better to err on the rich side than on the lean side. When you get it working, you should have it put on a dyno to check A/F ratio.

We don't need to shim needles, ours come slotted from the factory...
