That's one way too do it, but actaually there's an easier way. You can use an idle bypass valve/poppet. They come with 3 or 4 springs and shims ranging from 5 to 20lbs. I don't know how much the carb seats will hold, but i'm guessing 10 to 14 lbs. You can choose a 10 lb spring and useing a leakdown gage set the poppet to your target by useing the shims provided with the idle bypass valve.
