Success. Stretched the pipe out to 19.75"(that was all of the aluminum tube that I had), OS #8 plug, DW 13x10, and 15ish% Nitro. I had to mix some 5% and 25% since it didn't like either alone. The needle now is pretty good, but I will pull the pipe out another 1/2" since I have about 3 clicks either way to be rich or too lean. It will idle at about 2200 and rev nice and clean with the regulator 1/4 turn in from flush.
Thanks for all of the help.

I may have the sleeve chromed anyways just because.
