12 inches after. And now that I'm in the middle of it I see that my exaust needs to be rewelded. it was almost in two pieces. Should I just use the two exaust gaskets that you would get from autozone or those with a gasket that I just made myself (out of the proper material)? I wonder if this will fix my lean running condition?

and do you guys think I should just jb weld it or take it to a shop?? LOL but really

We all thought you were talking about a 22re. If it is a carb and you know your way around then you would not be asking this question. Yes larger jets will make it run richer........

Like I said befoe FLASHER, its a 22r (see the post above yours) and I'm pretty good at working on dirt bike carbs (another post above yours).
Of course its a carb. Its a 22R. Maybe you should read my previous post before trying to point out which questions I should be asking.................

Most likley yes, but you never know.
But since he has a carb'd engine that wont apply.
