I'm not sure what you mean by float jet but the main metering jet has the size stamped on it. Like 55 is .055. If you are over 40 you will probably need a magnifying glass to read it.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

The one in my 216 is a "51" but the carb that I put on originally had a "58" in it. With the larger jet I had lots of extra power but it carboned up the plugs. I am thinking the "58" was for a 235.
