    I want to change to a right sided petcock. I have a stock 2001 883. What petcock do you recommend?
    What do i do with the voes?
    Go directly to the CV carb?
    Should i get a OEM style or high flow petcock? Future plans is a 2000i dynatek ignition and probably hammer performance 1275 kit.

      If you are concerned with fuel flow, you can't go wrong with a Pingel or Golan fuel petcock. Both are top of the line and are fully rebuildable. They aren't cheap, however they are hands down the best. Both make high flow options, however I really don't know if you're going to need it with even the 1275 kit. As for the VOES, if you are going to an electronic ignition with electronic advance, plug the VOES and just get rid of that switch.

    My pingle got eaten by my Edelbrock heads. 00 FXD what is you part number and price. That vacuum assist diaphragm gets in the way and rubs hard. It wore out.
    Running (twin cam)
    Edelbrock performer RPM heads
    Edelbrock intake
    Mikuni HSR 45 MM carb
    Lots of other stuff.
    Part Number?

    im rebuilding my first bike and figuring out the hose routing for my carb to gas tank, is the petcock 100 percent necessary to run the motorcycle ?

      Great question. No, it's not necessary for the bike to run, however I wouldn't build a motorcycle without using some sort of valve to shut the fuel off when the bike isn't running. If you don't have a fuel shut-off valve, there is constant pressure on the needle and seat in the carburetor. There is a really good chance that the needle and seat could fail, thus overfilling the carb and creating a spill from the overflow on the carb, or, the fuel could go past the carb and into the engine eventually filling the case with fuel. Use a petcock or some sort of inline fuel valve on your build. And I haven't even gotten into RESERVE that's on many petcocks. This could save you from having to push your bike from running out of fuel.
