No, not hard to do..but you have to figure out if you actually need to to begin with and what your particular engine needs.
Usually just a carb rebuild restores a lot of power through the better tuning. After that you have to find out which carb you have....then check to see what rods and jets you have in it. From there you can start with just changing the rods....this leaves your idle, low speed alone and changes your mid throttle.
You can bring on the secondaries sooner by adjusting the 'opening point' on the left (passenger side) of the carb....but be careful. Too much adjustment here will create bog.
