I appreciate all replies, but that doesn't make sense. My outboard carbs and their opening performance has been flawless since I had the car for a few weeks-5 years ago.Might need to change springs in the vacuum pods.
When I first got the car, the outboard carbs were not opening. The rod that connects them needed adjustments. Ever since I got them working, almost 5 years ago, every aspect of their performance has been outstanding.
They are 86s. I am not sure what the stock metering plates equate to.Could be end carb jets are incorrect size.
I did the Promax mods to make tuning the rear carb idle mixture screws easier, and for the improved design center carb metering block (in particular for hot cams), and the ease of rejetting the outboard carbs.
Either I get this straightened out or look for the carbs for sale because I'm not going to put them back to stock condition, although I have all of the original parts, which would go along with them.
My next move if I can't get them right is:
Either the F&B direct port injection throttle body 3x2 setup,
OR MORE LIKELY this:
