What would you guys do with the carb I have to improve it?
Depends on how much you're willing to tune vs. wanting to just bolt-on and go (more or less).
For what you've described, I'd probably... - buy a Proform replacement main body - buy a secondary metering block conversion kit - buy a quick-change top for the vacuum secondary pod & spring kit - open up the primary block PVCR to .055", if it's smaller currently - stick a 6.5" power valve in it - get a range of jets from #70 through #84 and set it up to start with using #72 primary & #80 secondary - buy some extra squirters to have at least .028", .031", .033" & .035" to try out (but it'll probably be too fat w/ the .035") - pick up a pack of different accelerator pump cams to try w/ the different nozzles
But, then again, I like to tune things... If you don't, I still suggest contact AED in Richmond about what they suggest to upgrade it and, maybe, sending them the carb for them to do the work.
BTW, your profile location still says VA; didn't realize you were in FL now.
