Also another carb question is about the carbs with the accelerator pump. Are these any good? and how hard are they to get parts for. My friend has my good carbs on a customers bike and wants to trade me a set of those but some one has taken the pump off and put a block off plate on them. I would like them to be complete but dont see the missing pieces in rebuild kits.

AFA the carbs with the accelerator pump, if they are missing the pumps they are worthless IMHO. That is their whole value, and the pumps are made of unobtainium.

One thing that puzzles me is that if you look under the carb and the float bowl area there is a spot where it looks like there should be an adjustment screw. Like a mixture screw. But there is none. I shined a light in the hole and there is no threads for a screw. Ive read on one of the carb rebuilding sites on here that there was a set of carbs that are un tuneable. Im wondering if I have those and if they are worth messing with.

Those carbs will clean up. They have value. We need right side up pics of the pumper carbs you are referencing to.
