Default Carb reworking

Anyone know anybody that reworks carbs, flow tests them, sets them up for you etc. I was going to buy a new carb but I think I will just get the one I have fixed up to flow a little more as I already have about $800 into it.

I too would like to take my carb to a carb guru to get power tuned.

I have done a lot of work to my 3310-4
Cut the choke housing off and blend
Install metering block for secondary
Installed jet extensions on secondary jets
New larger needle and seats
Quick change vacuum secondary spring kit

As for tuning…
Currently it runs but I hope Lars can make it run better
Here is a before and after pic. Looks almost like a Holley HP carb
