292 main jet size?
 
Does anybody have a factory service manual that could tell me the main jet size for a 292ci with a Rochester B single barrel carburetor? The carb I just put on is off of a 230ci and made the motor real lean. So I stole the main jet out of the Rochester M(later model) that I used to have on the 292 and it made the motor too rich.

I have a 1970 service manual that calls for a .128" mainjet in the Rochester M carburetor. The jet I have out of the M is larger than .128" and made it run rich with the Rochester B carb. I ended up drilling out the smaller jet from the 230 a little to come up with something in between and it works pretty well, but I'd like to know what the factory specs call for.

Thanks,
Andrew
