Backpressure vs enrichening carbs

That's correct. Think of these carbs as most similar to the "predator" carbs. The CV design will want to give it more fuel but the airbox only will flow a set amount of air.

You won't need to do any carb alteration if decide on the Mark's....other than a 1mm needle shim and back out the A/F's to 3 1/4 turns.

So..1 more question...where on the needle would the 1mm washers go?

if im picturing this right its washer,e-clip, then the new 1mm washer(shim) then the plastic thingy.....and want to make sure you get the plastic sitting correctly when you reinstall it, it has a little nib or tit on it that makes it sit down correctly. you will see when you take it apart if you havent already
It should go in between the "e" clip and the nylon washer with the nipple.

this forum is great for all the help you can get.......lots of knowledge here
I would use caution prior to adding the washer. That will richen the mixture up and may be opposite of what you actually need to do. Experimentation will be your best bet.
