Ran better but still stumbled off idle and when going from mild throttle to wide open quickly. It has also ALWAYS had a "run-on" problem

Needs a bigger pump jet. The run on problem isn't going to go away because of a carby change.

Found a set of OE carbs on craigs list from a '67 B18 122. If needed, would these be a good choice?

I'm assuming they are twin HS6 SU's? They'd be fine with KD or KN needles as or starting point.

Alternately, a 2bbl Holley would be the way I'd go because Twin HS6 SU's will limit your power to not much more than a stock B20B.
