Hello Everyone,

Problem is solved!!!!!!! It was the carb!

I ordered a QuickFuel Q-650 carb from B2 Motorsports as recommended by Brent Lykins. I pulled the old holley avenger off and dropped the new carb on this afternoon. She fired right up and all I had to do was adjust the primary fuel level (love the sight glass windows by the way) and adjust the idle screw.

Took her for a spin and no more breaking up under full throttle! Throttle response is awesome.....it's like a whole new car! Feels like I installed a supercharger to be honest.

Anyway, thanks for everyone's help and a Special thanks goes the Brent at B2 Motorsports. He was very helpful and answered all my questions. To be honest, his customer service and accessibility is second to none. I emailed him last Sunday evening around 7:00pm and received and email back within the hour. I asked if he could setup a carb for me and have delivered to me by today. It arrived today just before 1:00pm. Awesome service!

Before every carb goes out, he disassembles and inspects them. He sets them up specifically for your engine. There was a card in the box with all the jetting sizes, air bleeds and such. Almost everything was changed and the new numbers hand written in. I have to say, it runs and feels like his changes are spot on!

Thanks again Brent!

Tom
