Did the same thing: you are referring to the bending of the linkage, right?

That will get the secondaries open sooner, and can help. But it will not increase the total airflow capabilities of the carb. Are you running an aircleaner? Your carb is a 750 with annular boosters. Annular boosters are larger than the regular or downleg boosters and thus reduce the CFM of the carb a little bit. Most guys run the straight boosters which are considerably smaller. The annulars are nicer, but you need a carb with slightly more CFM to start with, the annulars have better throttle response so that makes up the difference of lower air velocity through the carb at low rpm's.
