Tuning a 6bbl is no worse than any otehr carb. If the engine is healthy and parts matched (meaning a decent static ratio and the cam degreed in properly) they are really, really easy. The 6bbls I've owned and tuned all idle at around 750, noen thunk into gear, they dont burn well at idle because of the overlap, but there's no crud on the back end of the cars like most I've seen. There's no magic to a 6bbl. It's just the primary side of a 650 carb. I agree with the timing issues, and that timing ALWAYS gets set first. Then carb adjustments.
Well, art is art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand, water is water! And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does. Now, uh... Now you tell me what you know.
