IF you are running those cheap rubber filters....FORGET IT..they change the flow characteristics TOOO much and you can ever get the tune right because of the changes to the airflow

Now on the float sticking..are you sure it was the float? Where was the fuel coming from ? If it was coming from the pump jet do you have press in pumps or the screw in type?

I just noticed this is on a 289 so you probably don't have the problem with the pump jet not sealing correctly that is limited to 427's

Did you set the float's in these carbs when you got them? Don't assume they were set correctly from the factory!
