This is personal opinion - and is gonna sound harsh - but I fix those carbs with a 1/2 inch wrench. They are mechanical secondary but without a rear accelerator pump. when I worked at Holley in the mid-80s-90s the engineering guys referred to those as "flamethrowers". They just open up too much throttle area without the necessary added fuel.

You'll be a LOT better off even with a couple of generic 600 vac secondary carbs.
