FINALLY Solved the problem

I had a problem with the engine stalling on left hand turns for about a year now. Replaced EVERYTHING. Finally, I ordered a new adapter from summitracing.com to replace the one from Clifford which had 2 holes at the bottom that I had to cover. The new one doesn't have those holes and I still had to do a little grinding on the new adapter. Drove it today and it seems to have more power as well as no more stalling! Only big problem is that the new adapter turned the carb around almost 180 degrees so none of my linkage, fuel lines, and vacuum lines fit anymore. Thankfully they were all too long, so I don't have to buy new ones, just cut them down. Still don't know what is going on with the one fuel mixture screw, it doesn't bog down the motor when I turn it all the way in. I'll save that for another day. Everything is running smooth now. Whew! I need a break!
 
I figure it was one of two things. 1. I had a small vacuum leak through one of the holes in the bottom of the adapter. 2. somehow the carb position is wrong, and if that was true I wouldn't be the only having this problem.

I remember hearing that the powervalve being blown out from this or something? I forget what someone told me about if you turn it all the way in and it doesnt kill it, something was blown or blown out or something? maybe Im crazy?
