Hi Scott,
A couple of questions.
When you pulled the carb bowls and checked the gascolator were they clean?
Just thinking outloud here for any possibilities.
Do you have another inline filter or an inline fuel pump that may be slowing the fuel flow? Do the pistons (slides) in the carb move up and down freely? Could be a clog at a banjo bolt? I would check the Banjo bolts and if you have access to an air supply disconnect a fuel line way back by the tank someplace, disconnect the fuel hoses at the carbs and blow through the system and see if you have free flowing air or if there is some back pressure? This sure sounds like a fuel flow restriction issue.
p.s.
Do you happen to have a friend named Jay?

Turns out it was the carbs- specifically a ripped diaphragm on the slide. Thank you Roger and Kevin for the quick responses and input, I really appreciate it.
Scott
