Rick, my $ .10!!

<<I've still not completed my engine and have three sets of carbs to  
choose from. HD6, HD8 and 40DCOE>>

I would pick the 6s because:
1]  You always can play with needle change (Rolling Dyno recommended).
2]  Simplicity of the unit(s).
3]  Tunability (easiest of the 3 models).
4]  Reliability.

8s are a PITA for setup/tuning and a tad more complicated.

The 40s HAVE to be tuned/setup for/to your motor!!  
That can be a serious HUGE PITA !!  BTDT<F>

<<as I suspect 45's are very big for street use.>>

Yep and as mentioned in another thread, motor/carbs require 3/4 race
cam minimum.  And one is also back to tuning/setup for YOUR motor.
