Hi Blue, and thanks for the reply! You could be right but the problem does not show up on a cool day or in the mornings. It seems to only surface when temps are in the 95+ range and we have no shortage of really hot days in this part of Arizona. I am worried about the car stalling in summer stop & go traffic.
As far as I know there was no heat shield under the carbs on the B16s, at least none of my B16s has one. If anyone knows of such a shield please chime in!

Cheers!
OK
PS The car is not running hot otherwise - the coolant temp stays around 175-180 even during the idle periods where the stumble starts.
