32mm vent if you can find them for 48IDA
55 idle x 110 air corrector/jet holder
135 main w/ F2 tube
180 air corrector

But remember, pinpointing jetting on the internet is a real guessing game.

 Shocked Shocked

That bein' said, I had a couple of engines similar to this.  My combo wound up being 140ac, f7, 145m and 120/65 on the idle circuit with the 37mm vents.  It was
eye watering at idle but made good power both as an 1800 and as an 1835 with either a 110 or 125 Engle cam.  Like Jim pointed out though, it's a seat of the pants
deal; you gotta make the call yourself!  Good luck!
