First off you may be ASSuMEing that neither carb was rebuilt BEFORE you opened them up , how are you determinin that? If they were rebuilt how do you know they used the same kits?
Next , does the AVS have a fuel starvation issue ?
The clip makes sure the needle comes off the seat as the fuel level drops in the bowl and the float drops. If the clips are not the same shape between the 2 carbs and the kit then they will not be able to be put in different locations as you can see.
Also make note that the floats are different , the AVS's arm that limits drop goes over the pin when inverted , the AFB under.
Also I'm 99% sure the AVS clip should be parallel to the float pin ... it would go across the tab that goes over the pin, that way it stays put.
