Slant 6 Turbo 68Dart Project

I got the fuel sorted out today. I backed off the idle screws a bit to make everything smoother at idle. This whole no-choke thing makes it hard to drive around in the early morning, but every other part of the day you can start it, warm it up, and go.

But the float bowl turned out to be too low. I took the sight screw out, and let the pump run, and nothing came out of the hole. You could see the fuel level and it was sitting just a little higher than the power valve, but not much. I raised the level with the pump running till fuel started running out the hole, then tightened it all back together. It no longer falls on its face while under boost.

The issue I'm chasing now is I think a mental one - but the car seems real slow when off boost. I think I am getting too used to having the boost - is this the "addiction" I'm hearing about? Otherwise it feels like a lot of acceleration is going on but no power. Maybe that's how it always was... I don't know. I think I might be ready soon to put the MBC back on and try and adjust it - only because it takes quite a bit of time to hit 5psi, and I want to get the MBC to a point where it is at 5psi at open, and then I can really adjust and tune everything.
