I was talking to someone from Duncan racing on getting a 34mm carb and they keep pushing me towards getting the PYRAMID Reeds too. I have the V Force 4's already but Duncan says they are junk and claims I will see significant gains from the PYRAMID over the V force 4. I also was reading up on the PYRAMID Reeds saying the peddles have to be replaced every 12 hours of run time?! My Blaster is 27 years old and the only time I changed the reeds was last year when I decided to buy the V Force 4's. So the question is do I spend the ridiculous $200 on the PYRAMID Reeds or keep the V Force 4's? I want what is best for my Blaster but then again I don't want to give up an arm and a leg.
