I love it, but I would never use it with a carb set-up.
What do carbs have to do with it?

Not enough adjustability on the carbs to make it run correctly when in higher gears. I could cruise down the highway in 6th, but it would buck. A lot depends on your cam also. 1900 RPM is way below the range of most camshafts. You can adjust EFI enough to make it work.
