Default Another HSR 42 tuning question

Can I get peoples best guess on what to start with? It is going on a 95" with stock heads, 9.3 compression, khrome works slip-ons, SE air intake with K&N filter. SE 203 cams.

What needle, pilot, main, and accel pump jet?

Id start with the #25 pilot jet, leave the needle alone for now, and a 155 main.

leave the stock squirter in for now.

you may want to consider the Head-Quarters tuning kit, it cheap 20$ or so, but it helps lean the mid range abit.

98 needle, clip in the middle
20 pilot
165 main
50 pump nozzle

That's what I ran in my '03 Dyna with pretty much the same setup you have. This is a popular combination. You may get away with a 17.5 pilot or may need a 22.5, you'll be able to tell once you get it together and set the idle mixture screw. The stock 25 pilot is usually rich.
The Mikuni tuning manual is good.
