Well, There I was putting together my 17056228  3015ABL using recipe #1  for the exception of the ICR's which are already at .055.   Large main air bleeds,  Was going to use 76 jets and 48k rods I know I had but cannot find THEM. I have a set of 52k rods that I can use but not sure if they would be too much rod. I know many of the later Chevy carbs use the 77 jets 52 rod setup but thats not what cliffs book recommends.  I need to get this carb on the truck due to the one on the truck needs help, warped, etc..  Im still going to build the 17085213  0077HPB but need the truck  and have everything I need for the other carb except the 48k rods.
What do you Think.

Cliff Ruggles:
We sell jets and metering rods, and drive in airbleeds for those models as well.  When you get time, call the shop and we'll get what you need headed your way.

It's difficult to build them with the factory type metering rods, as most are "K" series and only have .005" of taper on the upper section, which limits adjustment with the APT screw.  The large MAB models are also very lean, even with pretty big jets in them.....Cliff

Ok. Ordered the parts i need today from the sweet voice on the other end.

Have a few questions to ask Cliff if he has a chance to call me back, if not I will post questions later.

Time to head off to work soon.           Thanks Craig
