i had a 190 air corrector (top jet on the stack) on a malossi 210, worked ok , but subsequent 210"s ive done, ive drilled the filter , and used the standard 160. if using a T5 carb, the air corrector is shorter, and a P2 one will not fit with the larger T5 filter. why not try a P200 carb, its slightly taller and will give you more options jetting wise. from memory, is the T5 one a 120?
