alright guys i need some help.i just rebuilt my carb and put it on and it seems to be running rich,it flutters at low rpms under acceleration,and it smokes pretty bad when i open it up.i thought i might need to jet it down a size or two.what would be a good jet combo to start out with?look at my signature for all my mods.

76/84 works great for me but I have a pro-form body. So drop down a few and it should be a good starting point.
