Just cant get it tuned right 440

Get the timing issues figured out first. Mark TDC on balancer and run about 20* initial to start and around 36 total all in by 2500.

That cam should idle at 900 rpm

Reset the carb to the factory setting, jetting/power valve. If it has the idle ease set up, that will help, but, start with it closed off.

Bob, you sure on your 1 3/8" is 38*. Each degree is about 1/16, so he needs 2 3/8". I'm thinking a fat finger deal... :)

I like to mark my balancers at 15 and 30BTDC. You can usually get any timing event up to 40btdc using factory timing marks.
