Default 69 Manx sputtering

I have a 69 Manx with a fresh 1915cc that I built last year. So when the engine was built I used an empi progressive carb and I can’t install the heat risers because my exhaust doesn’t have the port for them. I believe that my sputter may be caused by condensation building up. How can I get heat to the carb without heat risers?

What makes you think it's condensation?

We're heading into warmer weather... you'd be seeing a difference by now I
would expect.

Condensation really won't do that much... if you don't believe me, spray a
plant mister into your intake. If it's sputtering, I'd suspect poor ignition
or uneven mixture.
