19mm carb with metrakit - jets?

so i finally cracked and ordered a bigger carb for my dellorto, after seeing how much faster than me people with big carb, case matched, metrakitted puchs were riding at whiskey business. i was just wondering what the ballpark was for jet sizing with that set up (19mm carb, case-matched kit)? i'm figuring a main jet in the low '90s . . . i know nothing of pilot jets . . . can anyone give me a general starting range? i will be riding in chicago spring/summer weather, which is muggy-ish high '60s to low '80s, elevation about 400 feet

this weekend mattw was running something crazy low in his metra with a 19 carb, like a 73. its ported out and case matched.
