Your question is going to involve a lot of opinion type answers, some say this works great, others say different. So, my opinion is just get the factory ones. I did, and have no problems or concerns with quality of product, fitment issues, etc. Just be aware that ALL carb kits will fit a variety of motors, so don't be surprised when your kits come with a little pile of extra parts that look nothing like some of the parts on your carbs. Just follow the repair manual (hoping you have one) and replace whatever parts it says to, then when you are done, toss the rest of the parts in the garbage.
