Having the correct carburetor for your vehicle does help avoid a lot of this. My friend Karl has been doing this for a living most of his life and I've been hanging around him since the 1980's. We both used to race GTO's and we've learned a lot the hard way. Maybe by sharing some of this someone will be inspired to pick up the mantle and become a carburetor craftsman.
