If you have the US stock 32mm Bing carbs your stock main jet is #135
That should be OK up to 10,000 - 12,000 ft.
You will be running rich. For over 10,000 ft I would say a main jet of #124
I would not go below 10,000 ft with that main jet, you would be running to lean.
You can get the Bing carburettor book at the Bing Agency International L.L.C.
