You definitely won't find anything standard that matches up to it, at least I wasn't able to when I looked into it.
From what I recall at the time, there was somebody online that was tapping them and replacing the pilot jet with something more standard, but the cost was about the same as just getting a Mikuni.
If you have the tools, it seemed easy enough. If you had to go out and purchase them or pay to have it done, it didn't seem worth the bother vs. buying a new Mikuni.

Thanks for your input on the pilot jet problems on the Shin Wei carb. Weird, huh? Why tap a sleeve so you can press in the sleeve, and then use a screw in jet? Unless the idea is to make it non owner serviceable (Read EPA)....ARH
