This was a serious problem in the early days

fuel would puddle between the carbs, and when
accelerating, would flow into the rearmost cylinders
causing some stumbling. This was corrected by
constructing a pyramid so that there was no shelf
to puddle on. (we also found that this improved
performance).

BTW, All my dealings with Kinsler were positive.
Nice people to do business with.

I first meet Jim Kinsler back about 1968 or 1969 as I recall.
Real early days of fuel injection. He must be Steve Kinslers dad.
