most important thing, "start rich" and then back yourself down, much safe tuning path.

Look into the 'top' of the carb and tell us what size venturis you have. You should see numbers cast into the top edges of the venturis.

you should have bought a 48 for the high comp 13B. 45 is too small especially if your planning on porting the motor..

This link gives the specs for the carb. And yes, you should have bought the 48 mm. You can always install smaller chokes, it's a bit hard to install larger ones.

+1 he should have gone to a rotary carb specialist for proper carb sizing/ jetting to make his life way easier
