It starts and runs ok but when i accelerate hardish it hesitates/stutters quite bad, if i accelerate gradually its ok but stutters again when the revs start to build up, it'll run ok to about 60mph then starts to lose the plot
Jetting is 150 mains, 58 idles, 40 accelerator pumps, air correctors 210, chokes 32mm, emulsion tubes 7772.11

Also are there any views on the pro's or cons of soldering and re drilling carburetor jets.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
