i threw a carb kit at it so yes, new jets. 99% sure they are all in the right place.

hand over carb trick? do explain

trans doesnt sound/feel like its slipping. revs dont build with no extra speed or anything

Remove air cleaner, hold about 2500 rpm on it, block air intake with hand remove before engine dies, repeat. Sucks muck through jets. Jets can be accessed with carb in place, just in case you are unsure. Check they are tight. Sounds strange idle is ok, but not low speed.
