You don't have to do much with the 76s. Rich from factory. Put on some larger mains... perhaps #120s.

What set up? The 26s with 120 mains? If you are lean with the 76 carbs with 120 mains, there is some other problem... air leak would seem likely. What makes you think you are lean?

ok slapped the 120's in and much better gonna go for another test ride and buy some new plugs-

as far as performance are 26's a step backward compared to the kdfi fuel injection?
