Now I need to order two filters and some new jets and it will be even better.
As it is now at a slow lope to cracking the throttle wide open is has zero hesitation.
Last winter I put a programmable spark box in it and the rev limit is now 8,000 rpm.

Yes you are right $100 is a good price to have someone else do this and not mess up your carburetors it can be easily done.
