I shaved some off the ends of the pich bolt but it did not stop the carb wiggle. Now You can feel it tighten down on the carb neck but it's still not tight for some reason. I went ahead and sealed it up and will finish break-in and may contact racefactor about it. Thanks for the help guys.
Idle gap should be set at .7 - 1mm. Then tune engine HSN then LSN. When you have the LSN set spot on and idle is steady, then adjust the idle gap if neccessary to achieve the idle speed you want. It is important you set the needles, especialy the LSN with this .7 - 1mm gap for a proper tune and performance, otherwise you run into the problem of a false tune with a rich LSN and a lean HSN but the motor will still run reasonable (with associated problems) - all due to the idle gap being too wide. Hope this all makes sense
