Pinto 38/38 tuning

hey guys,
 
Needs some tips on tuning the 38 weber on my 2lt pinto (big valve head etc)... do you keep the same original jets (155's). 
how many turns for the idle mixtures and jets...
Already seems to be a big improvement in the 32/36.... just needs some fine adjustments.
Cheers All.

    ... so no one out there has a 38/38 on a pinto?  
    Anyway, its become a bit of a monster... a massive difference and feel to the 32/36, and i'm still playing with the idle mixture.  
    With a go if you want a little more poke without changing manifolds and linkages.

    I had one on my RS2000 years ago and it did make a big difference.  Looks stock too!
