GT 186 jeting

Hi all can anyone point me in the right direction regarding jet sizes when using a 28mil phbh and expansion pipe with the GT 186 kit. I have looked on the GT site/manual but cant seem to find anything for this carb (unless im looking in wrong place)

I'd go with the Li150 and 17x46. You might need to biff your stearling pipe if it doesn't pull and go for something a bit longer.
