Just hit me, if you haven't checked the jet sizes, take a look. The B was on a number of vehicles, so having the right size installed is important. The jets typically have the size stamped on them, here's a chart to match up to. If you're off by a size or two, you should be okay or you can swap between the 2 carbs if ya' have to.
