Well thought I would follow up... Its been cold and snowy so if figured it was a good time to go for it. Rebuilt the the carb, installed a performer RPM with a 1 inch spacer and set the timing to 18 intial and 38 all in. WOW! what a difference...roast them at will. Thanks again for everyones advice. Added some dual cooling fans, white face gauges with l.e.d. lights and threw on a trans cooler...cant wait until spring time!
