Hi Tim
I've got a 3300 installed in a Europa I recently completed (60 hours so far).
I have the carb jetted according to the factory recommendations, i.e., 285 needle jet with the Jabiru needle. I have heard about installing an aluminum fin in the exit throat of the air box to help balance the flow to the cylinders by making the flow more laminar. What else can you do to balance the cylinders?
