S&S Super E. Bike starts so fast, you barely hear the starter turn.
Running Blue Streak points too.

Super E on my 76
Starts lightening fast, runs perfect. Love the adjustability and I'm not worried about mpg.

SU. It took a while to get set up what with the springs and needles but it doesn't spit gas all over my leg anymore!
