100 percent guaranteed.  I can set up new Yamaha sled and give people starting setup and work from there.   81 Srx I have was told purple spring n1 weights.  Simply put was a start. My 140 pound son and 120 pound son driving the vintage sleds.  My 300 pounds dot work.  I send them down track with go pro on tack and a timer.  I know you can't clutch a sled from a keyboard but I know it can be a close starting point

I have a 80 and 82 LTD and have 38's on both.  Both are recent builds and haven't fine tuned jetting.  With that said, I would start with 35 pilots, 290 mains, 2.5 slide, 6dh7 needle.   The 80 LTD has good potential.
did you ever get any closer on tuning? i was going to go out wityh it this weekend if not to warm out
