So in my hunt to smooth things out with my sniper I came across many people who were unhappy with the unruly throttle response. SO unruly, for me I needed to keep my foot wedged into the trans tunnel and roll my foot back into the go go pedal or else you would snap your neck back taking off so quick.

Snipers are sold and sent with a 1 : 1 connection between all four ports. This causes much too much HP for normal street driving. They make a progressive rod that gives you 37 to 40 percent of primaries before secondary open which is the way normal carbs are sent out. Not sure why snipers are sent out this way?

Of course a small piece of bent rod is 20 bucks. I may try to make one this weekend. If it does not go well then I can buy something that should have some in the box as a option.
