    Ok is this what the reed cage should look like. It doesn't really have enough of a lip to catch on the engine block. From pictures I see on the internet all I see are cages with flanges with screw holes.

    Ok I did some research and am heading to home depot after class today to build a pressure tester. I looked at piston and cylinder walls through the exhaust hole and it had a few lines on skirt but piston looks great and cylinder walls look great too. So I'm hoping I have an air leak somewhere...

    Need help figuring out proper jet size.
