Just wanted to follow up after this carb ordeal.
One thing that is included in the kit are the needle valves that the floats connect to that turn off the fuel when the bowl gets full. This is actually part of a Redline rebuild kit that CB Performance bundles with the other parts that includes all the gaskets, o-rings, and other rebuild parts. So, I install everything and bolt the left carb up, connect the fuel line and move over to right carb and start mounting it. I start smelling gas and hear this trickling sound. I look and both left carb barrels are overflowing with fuel! I pinch off the line while I watch the engine swallow all that gas.
GREAT.Long story short, I had to reinstall my old needle valves. Both carbs did the same thing. After changing the oil, I pulled all the plugs and cranked it over to get all the raw fuel out of the cylinders. Number four shot out a slug fuel that splatted on my shop wall, it surely would have broke something had I cranked it with all that fuel in there.
Performance wise, I guess the kit helps a little. The mid range seems better but I didn't notice a huge improvement. The engine is a 2332. I'm not sure if I had to do this over again that I would spend the money. I got 'er dun, but it was a real pain in the ASS!
