that I have done.  So I don't think I have missed anything on the rebuild.
But after we got everything back together I can't get the engine to idle
down lower than about 2 to 2.5 grand.  (High idle was not an issue before
the rebuild.)<

Creig, do these carbs have the poppet valves on the throttle plates or the
separate over-run valves on the side of the carbs a la TR6 carbs?  Either
way I'd check there next.
