    If the carbs are good and it ran fine before you changed to the dual carbs, I would look as theBRAIN 426 said or for some other vacuum leak.

    Sounds like a va***e leak. Have the car running and spray stater fluid out side the carb. If it speeds up a little that means you have a va***e leak. The leak is ****ing in the starter fluid causing it to rev.

    Squirt some oil around the manifold to head fittment and if it smokes out the exhaust you got a leak. Those ring in the head ports are a problem to seat. Iceman
