Berry, the system seems to work fine, and I'm using stock needles in
all the carbs. I have the needles adjusted more to the lean side now
than when I had only two carbs. I think the reason it all works is
because the engine is breathing a lot better now. The head is ported
and polished, I have 1.65:1 roller rockers, the cam is about a stage 2
profile, and the exhaust is free flowing. The O2 sensor and mixture
gauge confirm that everything is running fine. I just have to fiddle
with the idle mixture a bit.
