Thanks Bill,
I'm running Mikuni HSR 45's. The jetting will be a snap with 200 mains & a
couple notches on the needle jet clips. I just don't want to knock any holes in
my pistons & 36 - 38 seems a bit much for that elevation.

Subject: Re: [Fot] Ignition timing in a TR-4
You are unlikely to need to change your timing if you get the carburetion
right. In theory if you are using SU you should be OK, in practice you might
want to go a little richer. If you're using webers you will have to spend an
hour or so doing plug chops and getting your compensator and main jet right.
You'll need a couple of sets of new spark plugs to get it just right.
