    I’ve bought two sets of Kadrons from him.
    
    He knows everything there is to know about these carbs.
    
    See also his YouTube tutorials.
    
    Good luck.

The carbs were a little over jetted for the 2.0, but it ran so well, I never tried to change the jets.  But, about 2 years ago, the right side carb started misbehaving on start-up – especially if the bus had been sitting for a few days.  The right side would not run at all for a minute or two, but usually whatever was clogging the carb cleared itself and it then ran fine.
