Carter 9636SA
438" b-block, 383 with a 440 crank.
214 / 224 cam, 1 3/4 headers, 4-speed, 3.91

I know I need to dial in the tune once it's running, but just for initial fire-up, do you figure I should go with OOTB Carter settings ?

.098 jets, .070/.060 rods, plain springs, 7/16 float setting.

I don't know what the OOTB Carter is supposedly optimized for.
