Will I be fine using a gas jet .003 too big?
Just getting my system worked out, most of my jets are an hour away, but I have a 41 and a 26 here to try out a 75 shot.
http://www.azsupersport.com/nitrousjetcalc.asp says that at 43.5 and 1000 psi the jets should be a 41 and a 23.
Will 26 get me puddling fuel or is there not enough fuel to puddle?

First, those jet calculators aren't perfect so you can't take them as gospel.
Second, .003 isn't enough difference to cause it to puddle fuel I don't think.
Most of my fuel jets are .001 larger than recommended. I look at it as cheap insurance, better to be slightly rich, than lean.
