Yes I got the carb parts Adam. I used the biggest Jet, and the thinnest rod, with the strongest rod spring, and it didn't make a bit of difference.
I'm going to install the MP elec distributor kit one of these days just to rule it out, but I don't know if it will make a difference.
I almost want to drop a 427 Chevy and a Muncie M21 in this car.
