I just started on my latest GT750 project. I have a 1973 but want to use the carbs of a 1975 model. Has anyone here done that yet and know what I will need?

The early carbs actually run better with less surging on the overrun. See this thread.

Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.
