[Healeys] HD 8 Tuning

[BJ8Healeys]

Price, turning the jet adjusting screw clockwise lowers the jet (richens the
mixture), and turning it counterclockwise raises the jet (leans the
mixture).

I'm in the process of tuning my carbs. Reading the instructions I have, I am
to lift the piston slightly. If the engine speed increases I am to turn the
jet screw in (weaken it).  I'm not sure this is right for HD 8's. The jet
adjusting screw raises the jet, I think. It would seem to me that I need to
screw it out to drop the jet and increase the fuel flow. 

Any help is greatly appreciated.
