S&S Super E

I have an after market S&S Super E carburetor on my '79 HD. Does anyone have any information or know where I can find information on adjusting it?

You can try this web site they have a manual on adjustments. You still may want to dyno the engine to get the best out of the carb. Good luck!

yuki

before you adjust it clean it out! you might be suprized what lurks in the float bowl!

i run a late model CV carb on my panhead, unless you have made modifications to the bike you may be over carburated with the super E.
