What are you using for: 1. Main jets; 2. Air correctors, 3. Venturies?

I have the webers in my hot 6 [40 over forged, 12:1; 300 degree cam].  
At the dyno we used up all my main jets to get it rich -- finally we 
drilled out the 115 mains I had to something like 145.  That now causes 
the car to run to run rich all the time -- right up to 6500 RPM.  I 
started with 160 air correctors, went to 180, and now am at 200 -- still 
too rich!.  I have ordered 140 mains and will install them before my 
next track event [Saturday the 18th].  Will let you know the results.
