Ya dude dont eat dinner tonight and you got $9 :D

Flat rate USPS priority is now $9.30, or UPS may be cheaper since you are close, and ground shipping would get it to him next day.  BUDDHA DA MAN!

OK tang you ready for this ...
OK the good first.
They were clean, you have the jets all in the right spots (and the allen head screws are supposed to be for the float bowl, not the tops) and the O rings aren't completely shot. They are marginal, but prolly should be swapped. Air screws set to 3 on both, fairly close on synch, diaphragms and slides looked good.
The OK - apart from O rings, the rear top atmosphere equiliser T was missing, caps had no clips ... not a problem, you had these tiny ass washers on the needles ... why ? not a big deal though.
The bad.
You have 1 float needle in 1 carb, and the other was missing. Not just bad or ruined ... not there ... missing.
The other float needle isn't that great either, but your floats never were closing ... they hit the roof of the carb while still maintaining full flow.
I got pics of them as they came out of the box. Send me email and I'll send you pics.

I'd definetly put a float needle $5), maybe swap the marginal one too, and prolly put new  O rings ... but that is definetly something you can live with for a few months atleast if you had to.
Cool.
Buddha.
