OK, the carb is all sorted out. Plus, I just to be sure I went out and bought a Holley...and that runs a bit better than the Edelbrock. No stumbling, no hesitation.
It just feels flat from 3500rpm on up. So now I'm back to the timing. 16 degrees initial and 30 total with vacuum advance disconnected. I guess the total is a bit on the low side.
If I advance the initial beyond 16, it feels like I begin to lose torque.This is an FBO distributor.
I've put in a question to Don, but also would like to hear thoughts from you all also. thnx.
