    Can anyone help me find a dealer for a dial-bore gauge to measure main jets, pills and nozzle diameters? THANK YOU for your help!:)

    In this day and age you are better off buying flowed jets & nozzles as surface finish, chamfers etc. affect the flow of the jets just as much as the size of the hole does.

    I agree with Bob 100%. Just because the hole size is correct does not mean that the flow is correct. I have taken 6 .080" size unflowed jets and tested them and had six different GPM flows.

    I buy all of my pills and nozzles from Dennis Peranio and he flows them before he marks them. That way they are always correct.

    Flowed nozzles and jets

    THANK YOU for the replies, we had the same experience this past weekend with several jets/nozzles stamped the same and what a difference in flow! THANKS!
