Hi were the bike carbs new or used. 
the reason I ask is I bought a set from eBay from someone that says they were using them on there pinto but after fitting them there is NO WAY these were being used as when I used my AFR gauge they were running SO lean at idle they would have melted the pistons ( prob why they were being sold) 

I had to drill out the bypass jets before the bypass screws had any affect 

and I had all the speal about they were set up by bog brothers etc.

The bike carbs were on the engine when I bought the car.  They are awesome and ran perfectly huge power throughout the power range. I have bought twin Weber dcoe 40s I am still wondering why I am going that route when the bike carbs are so good......
