Just put carb on today, as a matter of fact. Didn't take it for a drive yet. His calibrations are pretty much right on. Needed a little bit more fuel at idle...check that your accelerator pump is squirting as soon as you move the throttle. 32* total isn't a whole lot of timing. Probably should be in the 38-40 range. Put some lighter springs in the dist to bring the timing all in sooner. 4000 is way to high. You need to get all the timing issues solved before you start messing with the carb.
