If my reading of carbs is right. Every sub model gets different air bleeds among other details. Which in my case never let it perform right. Work good yes, but not perform.
The 3310 is a performance carb. They are pretty much all I use. Either that or an 1850. Sorry you had issues with them as they are great carbs that are extremely tunable.
