I grabbed the old 8896 this is the old one non adjustable bleeds. So I put the AED blocks on adjusted the jets and installed the annular booster on the main body. Took out the 35 nozzles and installed the 31's. with some air screw adjustments it's much better than the 8896-2. Just a little richer on low end than I would like.

I'm assuming that the AED blocks have adjustable idle feed restrictions. You could try going a little smaller on them to try and help the rich low speed condition you're having. Do you know what size ifrs came in those blocks?
The annular boosters should help in your application, IMO. They normally require less jet than the standard boosters, so the original jetting in that 8896 might be a little on the fat side with them. Glad to hear that you've made improvements with this carb!
