Sounds like your cooing lines are incorrect or your running to lean on the carb settings

Count them as you turn them in by full rotations then start at atleast 2 turns out on the high needle. Unless its already past that. If the dry pipe was running hot then the carb wasnt jetted right to begin with

To the exhaust yes that way it fills the motor then to the pipe should come from the pupmp to the bottom of the exhaust manifold to the engine and back tot he exhaust from the top of the motor. Turn your high screw out a full turn and the low out a half.
