You need to clarify what you mean when you say idle jet. Idle is controlled by the idle mixture screw not a jet. Do you mean the primary jets?

Do you mean the primary jets? all carter afb's and their clones have an idle jet just like holleys have one. it's the small brass tube, next to the larger emulsion tube, that fits in the well. very simple. the edelbrock pamphlet that comes with the carbs shows it.
