It's do-able with the carbs in.
But .... don't do it.
Take the opportunity to inspect/clean at least this portion of your carbs.
Sometimes you think you will save yourself some work.....but end up working twice as hard.
Take 'em off.
All it takes is one time.....dropping one of those little screws down under the bed plate.....

i think you will also have to remove those tamper caps to install adj. screws so you'd have to pull them anyway.

No. Not to re-jet.
But it will be something needed when tuning.
If your "plugs" are still in, then you must pull the carbs. To get your new pipe to perform, you will have to do some tuning.

Are you not changing the pilot jet?
75 pilot/ 135 main is pretty standard when adding a b-pipe to an sj.

It was suggested by the builder I was working with. 75 has worked well for me. I've done a couple of ski's the same way.
Your fuel may be different etc... I don't know for sure! I'd go with what your local techs say.

The gasket usually does not tear and is reusuable

take them off it will be faster and you will more than likley end up taking them off anyways the screw inside like to be stubborn . and it would be a nightmere trying to get the jet in there and also make sure the gasket stays seated while vertical

Its do-able, ive done it with them in. But just take em off like everyone else said, makes life way easier. The screws are easy to strip not seeing what your doing...
