Compression test results
Well I'm happy to report as other have recommended that it was a fuel issue ! Very strange even though fuel was coming out of the boosters junk was in the fuel bowls. It looks like holleys hard coating debris made its way in the fuel bowls and was intermittently lodging itself in the needles / orifices. Took all apart, cleaned out, & seems ok. . .back to tuning ! . . .for now
