You'll probably only really know when you slap the carbs back on and take it for a run.  You might swapping the new diaphragms between the two carbs while you have them off and see if that makes a difference.

I had a problem with my new alternative hydrin diaphragms not going up soon enough, (presumably because of stiffness) and replaced them with genuine Bings.  Unfortunately the persistent snow here hasn't given me a chance to really test them out yet.  I am so ready for spring!!!
