The Power Enrichment (really more a high speed enrichment) needle goes under the venturi cluster as I recall.  The Accelerator pump discharge needle is visible when you take the carb top off right next to the pump well.

I'll beat him to it this time, Bob Helt has a nice book on Corvair H series carbs :-)
