My experience says it mixes reasonably well once you get back off from full
throttle. I'm not a fan of adding turbulators into the intakes. It mixes
better, but also effectively lowers your manifold pressure, so you might as
well just throttle back some and let the throttle plate disturb the air. The
intake Spider combined with the MS Carb doesn't do a great job of even fuel/air
distribution. You could think about an Ellison or Rotec throttle body if you
want to knock yourself out trying to fix it. But it's really kind of the norm
for the small Continentals. I've never seen one that ran a really even fuel
mixtures.
