Have you considered...
By Gerry Proctor - 01/29/2003 3:08:36 PM; IP 207.133.188.254
Just sending the carbs out to a shop like Jet, The Carb Shop, BG or one of the many other tuners and just have them re-calibrate them to function well on a dual quad? Essentially, they put restrictors in the fuel bleeds and enlarge the air bleeds. It's really not too much more complicated than that but, like any area of significant expertise, you're not paying for their time but for their experience.

You can do the holes in the butterflies but it's a real crap shoot as to what the outcome will be. Can't say I've ever done it as a method of achieving a good A/F ratio idle balance but your logic path makes sense. I don't know enough about carbs to say what cascading events may occur.
This thread, so far...
