Switch Them 120-130

I thought I made this pretty clear: the fit wasn't quite right even with the pistons and chambers OFF the car. I'm well aware of what a interference between the needle and jet feels like as I went through that procedure a couple times last week. The pistons and chambers were not sliding as easily as they should on the bench, not just on the car.

I also never removed the pistons from the carbs before my first re-installation attempt (left the pistons in the carb bodies after lifting the chambers off), so I doubt it had anything to do with bumping a needle out of position.

In any case, things seem to be moving freely now.
