My winter project this year will be rebuilding the 6 pack carbs. I've been running this set up for about 10 years now and the guy who owned the car before me had been running it for many years prior to that. So my guess is these carbs haven't been touched for 20-30 years. Its done okay for me for the past 10 years, but in the past 1-2 years it has started to run very rough on the idle circuit.
As you can see in the pics, this is the old Direct Connection Hustle Stuff 6-pack set up. The outer carbs have the accelerator pumps and no idle adjustments. I'm considering switching this over to the factory vacuum operated secondary set up. For you guys who have experience with 6-packs, any recommendations on whether I should stick with this or convert over to the factory set-up. I think I would have better adjustability/tuning with the factory set-up. This is mostly just a street driven car. Your thoughts?
