Default Honda VT 600 SHADOW tips

Hi all,
Sometime ago I buyed an old VT600 Shadow EEUU version. It have two carbs, four speed gearbox. Last week while I was cleaning the air filter box I find a piece of rubber blocking one of the two air intakes of the box. I think this is a restriction of power or maybe a pollution stuff. These restrictions not are neccesary in Spain. I removed the piece of rubber and the engine runs "short" of fuel mixture: now the carbs can take more air... My question is if somebody have the correct values for the main jets without restrictions. I can't get the correct tunning with the mixture screw, I need change the jet. Note: This engine have two Keihin carburetors.
Thanks in advance.
Vicente Jose.
