Asked this in the carb forum no responses. Reposting here for the evo experts.
In the process of removing a dynojet kit I found that the slide hole was drilled to a #29 bit which was larger than a 1/8" bit. I sealed the hole with jb weld and drilled a new hole on the other side of the slide directly opposite.
After reading a few comments on this I realized many redrilled right next to the old hole after it's sealed up. Does the side of the slide the vent hole is drilled on matter at all?
Looking at it I don't believe so, but wasn't sure as it's on the air cleaner side now instead of the side closer to the intake. Thanks.

You might want to read paragraph 6 of this. Just in case you run into any trouble.

For anyone that considers this...where you drill the new hole is important. You won't know until you drop the plastic needle cap or retainer in, but you can block the new hole with one of the legs of the plastic cap if you don't check where it sits before you drill. I ended up buying a whole new slide because of this.
