My bad - You're all dead on about the Carb, I completely missed that in my post. The first thing he was doing this evening after I left the car was pulling the carb to work on it and doing a rebuild to whatever extent is necessary. He hit most of the items on Marlin's list including the spacer not being aluminum.
I'll talk to him tomorrow about leaving the cross over open, with all of the other changes, if we leave that alone it may be enough to solve the problems without creating new issues.
