The stock needle works fine you may want to raise it one clip or shim it .040. Start with a 165 main and a 42 pilot

Main jet is in the bottom of your carb. It sits down in the float bowl, but remains screwed into the carb. It is your meter on how much gasoline gets into the carb.

Im not 100% sure on what the pilot jet does...:ermm:
