Your linkage might be out of sync alittle. (it takes awhile to get them just right), jetting is off, or air leak maybe? What kind of carb syncronizer do you have?

I have not balanced the carbs yet. I am in the process of getting a carb synchronizer. The linkage may be off also. I need to find some info about the IDF's and how to balance them etc.

Dave should be able to help out with the syncro tool, and adjusting the linkage, its a PITA . While your over at Dave's have him weld that "cup brace" in . If you buy a synro tool make sure you get a good one that sits IN the velocity stack, not ON top.

Looks great!!

I'm glad that you like the upgrade!!

hey Nigel, do you want to be a guest on the Radio show in two weeks? I think it would be a great thing to explain the differences in the car that you have noted having driven it with both types of power!

Dear Beth,
Plase help me finish the basement this weekend so I can finish your engine at home :-)

Thanks for the invitation Jake.
I would enjoy being on the show, but I may not be able to do it for the next few weeks. Hopefully some time in January?
Thanks again for the offer.
