I tried that and I tried everything else I could think of. If I turn it 1.5 turns, it bogs and sounds like a 2 cylinder tractor while cruising. . ..

The problem is that the cruise circuit comes in too soon, I think my engine has too much signal at cruise (12-17 "Hg) and the carb has an agressive fuel curve, great for drag racing, not so great for cruising.

it's worth a try with the bigger air bleeds, but I have a feeling, I will always need to keep the idle way lean to make up for the main circuit coming in too soon.
