What do you mean by "built too much"???

Is it a driveability issue??? Soft low-end throttle response?
No car runs fine and leaves well with the gears and stall so seems matched right but have not driven it much as it was shown plenty but want to drive it
What's been done to the mech. ignition curve??

What carb and carb tuning so far??

Typically many guys bolt on a carb and drop in the distributor, set total advance, and then the dissappointment begins when they want to street drive it.
Stock 100% 340 auto carbs from holley for 340 six pack out the box starts up and runs fine.


Thing is the gas cost as I was running 100% 110 with lead for one high compression and 2 no problems with storage getting lines and carbs messed up from bad gas
So wondering how low I can go with octane etc...
Dist was set so it starts up fine and runs well that's all I know at this point.
I know I have to do a few things to get the kinks out as they never were addressed
Small oil leak at pan conner,
One water pump bolt leaks antifreeze and needs sealant Intake I think is sucking oil in from galley and needs pulled and milled and reinstalled as it sat to high on the commando heads
I never fooled with it as I had to rebuild a whole home ND THEN OTHER THINGS CAME UP SO CAR SAT.
would like to address those issiues and drive it if gas is not a large cost
