Mid and high-range response is solid.

When it drops down to about 3-1k, it starts bogging and wanting to die. The exhaust is pretty strong, so it's rich there.

What can I do to fix it? I'm hoping I narrowed it down enough for you guys to have a better understanding.
Your float valves are leaking, and adjusting the idle mixture screws fixed it a bit? Are you listening to yourself?

As I said early in this thread, your carbs need a proper and thorough cleaning. Something in the idle-midrange circuits is not working properly. Returning everything to stock is also going to be necessary if you want it to run right.
