Vacuum advance working in the distributor? Make sure the diaphragm is good and the linkage moves in the distributor when you put vacuum to the actuator. The vacuum hose for the advance has to be on ported vacuum.

Too much carb will definitely make it bog if you give it too much too fast. It might help to increase the accelerator pump volume with the 50cc pump kit. I've been known to enlarge the squirters a little too.

Little more info on the motor would help too. What cam specs are you running? What ratio of rockers? What is the compression ratio of this? What have you had done to the heads? What is your rear end gear ratio and rear tire size? Running street tread or slicks? Open, posi or locked?Which intake and what are the specs on your exhaust? So much comes into play on this to try to dial in a diagosis.
