Just needing some help

Yep as someone mentioned above, the engine may have been tuned for manifold vacuum, and then you attached to ported vacuum and it caused the timing to go higher. I'm not familiar with timing ports on 2bl carbs. More knowledgable people will help you out.
Super clean engine bay!
