Well I used a Mr. Gasket ultra seal gasket and the only thing it did was make my choke stove not work due to the intake not getting hot enough and it now has a longer warm start than before replacing the intake gasket. I have monkeyed with this thing for 2 weeks and it has gone down hill from where I had it originally. Everytime I go back to my basic settings it runs properly and just has the surge. I have to leave Friday morning so hopefully I have it where nothing will go wrong until I get to PA and I can work on the distributor up there.

I am beginning to wonder is the setting by Tom and Dayclona for best performance or for best behavior? Cause short of the Carter pump and the distributor I have done everything to the T with poor results. I know common thought is I am screwing something up or I don't know what I am doing but it's funny my settings make it run right and everything works properly.
