What distributor/advance curve? exactly, it sounds retarded. DO YOU HAve a vacuum advance on the distributor? 218/218 .454 is not excessive in any way for a stock 440. with like 16 intial after cranking, and 10 addition additional for the vacumm (once it lights for smoothness). baseline the carb... you need timming to burn the fuel at idle in that big 440. heck when it comes to engines your "father time" give it some. torq converter...maybe not when is it engauging 1200 rpm - 1600tpm...you think it is failing?
