I have to give it a lot of gas out of first or it will bog real bad. It runs well at cruise and wot. It's obvious he overcompensated for something else wrong. It has to be a combination of carb tuning and timing along with distributor curve. I want to do it by the book but my brother-in-law has helped me at least be able to drive it as it was basically undrivable before. I will let him have his way for awhile and see what happen as I'm not worried at the moment about mpg or 1/10 seconds at the track. I'll keep you informed. Interesting that the books say one thing and other "experts" say another.
