Guys,

Again, I am still waiting for the 120 holders and taller (mine are 1 1/2) air stacks. We are planning to schedule a dyno session once all the parts are in and we feel that the car is running its best from what we can do.

Keith,

Thank you for the correction in regards to the mixture and cold weather. Lucky for me, the temp does not change that much in FL / miami.

I do have to say maybe my situation was a rare case. I tried dealing with these carbs for about 8 months to get them right. I was under the assumption that I was working with a good engine. Of course that what the engine builder continuly told me. DON'T TOUCH THE ENGINE. If I would have listened to him I would not be as happy as I am with the out come. After finding out that I had a broken piston ring and had the engine rebuilt to what I wanted originally everything fell into place.


Panavia,

If you like, send me an email or PM me. I am curious as to hearing why you say the cam is way too big for my setup.
