Chopper,
Thanks for the reply. To answer your questions:

1. It has been like this from the start. The engine has less than 2-hrs of run time (other than at Sothern Automotive).

2. I did have to change the turkey pan as there was a mixup and I received a brushed rather than a polished one.

3. The carb is brand new.

4. It has vacuum secondaries.

5. I suspect it is a misfire as it is down on power.

5. The ignition system is fine with about 12 deg at idle and 38 at 3000 rpm.

6. The customer spec'd out yellow wires so Southern Auto used "Mallory Super Wire Silicon Suppression Core".

I will try some of the items that you mention.

Thanks,
Bruce
