RE: Aluminum to carbon
Depending on your draw weight, you should be able to figure out the correct spine for a carbon arrow without having to compare.
If you are shooting 60 pounds, the gold tip 55/75 or the Beman 400' s should work for you just fine. If you are closer to 70 pounds, with the Bemans at least (since I am not familiar with Gold Tips) I would recommend the ICS 340' s.
I am currently set up with a 65# draw weight, 29" draw length and using 29" beman ICS 340' s with 125 grain heads and 4" plastic veins.

RE: Aluminum to carbon
I am shooting a Mathews LX, 30" Draw, 28 1/4" Gold Tip XT 55/75' s @ 68 pounds and the arrows fly awesome. The Gold Tip 55/75 should work fine as long as you do not go over 70 lbs. You will be glad you switched the first time you shoot your carbon into an oak tree and are able to pull it out and put it back in your quiver!
