Default Webers running rich
Just installed my Webers and they are running rich.

AFR 185 heads
Comp cams 282 Solid lifter 282/282 236/236 @.050 .528/.528 lift 110 lobe sep.

Webers
37 chokes
F5 emulsion tubes
155 mains
60f10 idle jets
1.10 holders
195 airs
50 pump jet / 50 exhaust

Manifold plumed for PCV (see gallery)

Carbs are in sync

Running rich, plugs are black. I set the floats prior to installation.

Is this normal for the plugs to be black? I have not taken the car out on the road as I am awaiting my appointment for the safty inspection.

From all the posts I've studied I shuold be right in the ball park with the jet combination. Any sugestions???
