Question Stroker questions
I have a 408 stroker. Victor Jr. Heads, Edelbrock Air Gap manifold, Ford Distributor, Ford ignition box with Accel super coil. I am running a Holley 750, single pumper with vacuum secondaries. I would like some advice on spark plugs and jetting for the carb. It takes some time to warm up when it is cold but once warm (180 thermostat) it runs well until I accelerate hard. It then sputters some and will backfire before taking off. After the gas is put to it a couple of times it will then accelerate smoothly through 5 to 6 grand. It acts as if the plugs are carboned up and need to be burned off.

Thanks for the help.
