Resurrection Complete!

Twist-a-grip:
Thanks Guys!  I took it for a quick ride today.  Wow!  The power is very strong and progressive.  No vicious hit.  I think I am a little rich down low because she blubbers a little on the bottom and idle screw is all the way in.  Current pilot is a 55, think I'll try a 50. Clip is at top on stock needle. 155 main.
Didn't really get into it to check the main, but seems to respond well above 1/2 throttle.
47 degrees 6000'.  Most of my riding will be above 8000' so i will definitely have to clean the bottom up.
The gearing is going to be pretty close.  The flywheel weight ties it all together.  I think I have a hybrid! 2/4 stroke. :shock:
