If he will help (or someone else) will be there to help count me in!

Mike....if you can get a logical baseline for jetting on your motor from someone who has a setup like yours, that would be a good idea if you still want to put your car down on the rollers in Livermore. Then, based on your HP numbers and A/F ratio results you can modify your jetting at your own pace back home, if any is needed. The rejetting is really very easy, although it will take a little longer since you need to remove one of the carbs. You'll need to get a new set of "reusable" blue float bowl gaskets if you don't already have them, maybe some new carb to intake manifold gaskets, and a set of jets - up and down - from what you will currently have in the carbs. Maybe a post on Club Cobra of SCOF will help you with coming up with a close jetting combination.

I purchaced these carbs from a shop called Blue Oval Performance back in 2002. When he sold them to me he said he would re-jet them for my application. For all I know the jets may already be OK, they just seem to run a little rich to me perhaps that can be adjusted on the dyno.
I think that it would be worth the $$ to get on the dyno and see if I am even close...
