O.k. what you can do is either ask an admin or a mod to delete it, or you can become a donator to the site and edit your own posts (plus you'll get a MightyRam50 window decal sent to you with a $15.00 + Donation). You won't need a tacho to dial in your carb but it will help if you want to try and set your ignition to run a 'dynamic' tune (tuned for on road performance instead of optimal @ idle). Timing should be set @ 5-7 BTDC. Your engine will run the big 38 DGES but with any carb swap, there's compromise on where it builds it's power curve, idle, torque etc. 65mph is respectable when some guys are having issues and can't get 50-55 out of theirs. I've suggested using an 8mm metric thread tap in the coolant port and sealing a grub screw in there with loctite. It's a neat method that can be reversed later if need be. I would like to confirm that you've installed the Weber right but without knowing what fuel pump you're running (if you got 65 out of it then fuel supply sounds solid) and being able to see around your engine, it's only guessing. Please clean your engine dude (I'm not taking a cheap shot at you). A clean engine is easier to work on, exposes oil leak sources and limits risk like bad electrical connections. A can of non caustic oven cleaner, a brush and a pressure cleaner will make short work of it (and cops really don't like doing a road-side and looking at something like this, it'll land you a defect notice)
