So, smaller carbs maybe a good thing for the extra torque I need for the
sidecar.  What about at 65 mph into the wind going up a hill?

"I was just going to ask why they'd go with 37mm if it hurts, what's

Smaller carbs enhance the low-end because under identical load conditions,
the air velocity is higher which allows the carb to meter the fuel better.
