MG MGB GT V8 Factory Originals Technical - Weber carb adjustment help

Hi all,

My V8 conversion is almost finished but i now need to adjust the carb as it running very rich - as it starts very easy without using the choke..

Now i'm not sure which is the adjustment screw so i have taken some photo's,

I don't recognise the carb, i have the 500 which has 2 adjuster screws for the mixture on the front, it might be worth looking in the archives as there is a lot of info for weber carbs and there might be something on this type.

You might even try talking to Pitstop in Carterton, Oxfordshire they are very helpful and might be able to give you some advice if you e-mail the pictures to them.
