Interesting Hilborn problem - advice?

(1/2) > >>

Hi y'all. Got the 406 in my MW car fired up this weekend. 406 / 3 piece Hilborn / DSR pump / 36 degrees timing / 115 main bypass/ 90 high speed at 50# on alcohol.

Started with BV leaked to 25% - small adjustments leaner have it idling pretty well and it's crisp on the throttle once I blow it out.

Passenger side cylinders seem very fat - 2/4/6/8 - most particularly #2 and #6. They are blowing lots of raw fuel at idle. They clean out fine when I hit the throttle but they appear to be very very rich.

Checked nozzles last night (clean), checked valve lash (all good at .02), fresh spark plugs. Going to check / gauge butterfly adjustment on that bank tonight after work.

Anybody wanna take a stab at why it's really good on one bank and super fat on the other....got butterfly adjustment in my head....what else might I be missing?

Thanks in advance!

Throttle plates side to side adjustment is off ! One side is open more than the other !

Thanks - I’ve breathed enough alcohol fumes this weekend to be second guessing myself!
Will check and set them tonight and report back.

Stack injection is difficult to get even out!

I used to use a uni sync tool to adjust them
