Unless you can find somewhere to ride at 140% WOT for hours on end; flow is more than sufficient.
DannoXYZ just wondering did your factor in the paper filter media density restriction for let say at lease 5or10 Micron in order to capture dirt and other particle from getting into float bowl in a gravity feed system.
Also, I hope to be driving this bike some 1500-mile one way to Idaho I hope this summer to see Grandkid and Daughter maybe even drop down into Nevada to see my mother and cousin "Yes I know I'm nuts " but what can do the driving my truck with avg mpg 12 is not going cut it and cost arm and leg in fuel so it drive or take a bus.
