hey m8 ,my advice would b,get ur float bowl pickup modified,c if u can get what you call whistlers that fit into the float bowl, i know they make em for holleys!,or if no joy there id be making a surge tank and that will solve all ur probs,my m8 years ago had a zuk with a 1500 datto in it and we fitted a surge tank to it and a 2nd fuel pump and then the zuk would idle all day long on any angle or steep climb,i hope this will give you some positive results,cheers
