there was no way i could use the factory mounting holes or the jets in their factory design. he had to have seriously modified the jets. i figured i could have detatched the jets from their dowel guide and lengthen them to the sides but i didn't want to risk anything. i just let it be and took them out. i'll talk to him about it later. he was using the forged pistons, which some have shorter skirts. so that's probably why he could use them, but...i'll talk to him about it. thanks
