No one can give you a magic formula. You gotta learn to read your motor and tune. I would start with huge jets and work your way down. I would try a 142ish main and you
Might need a bigger pilot

Greetings:

With that much displacement, I'd start with no smaller than a 160 main in the 30 and watch closely; it still may be too small.
Pilot might like 55 or more. Take 10 off the main and 5 off the Pilot if you opt for the 28. This is from my limited experience and short-lived 90cc mini-stroker, so it's conservative.

The theory is that bigger displacement will suck more fuel thru those jets than a 70cc. You might not be too far off with a 140-145 main.

Greetings:

Bigger displacement - for a given high RPM at full throttle - draws a higher volume of mixture.
Despite the higher level of vacuum in the carb throat, flow rate through the jet is limited by fluid dynamics fizzikz to a greater degree than the mixture (air) blasting through. Little jets won't keep up enough spray to match the higher air volumes. With respect, bigger bore needs bigger jet or it runs hot and burns.

I have found this to be true if a similar pipe is used.

what pipe are you running on your stoker?

That main sounds too big to me.

But, a hot manifold usually means your running lean. :confused:

Manifold, schmanifold! What's the CHT say? What does the plug look like? All intakes feel cool running. Don't go by that to determine your jetting.
