Dart falls on it's face.

Does it do it if you leave the car in high gear and run it up light throttle, then nail it to 6K? If you are looking for a budget module, find a Standard Ignition LX-101. It wont pull out timing like the orange box and the quality is more consistant. I've got 3 potential spots.. The carb.. is it new? Crap in it somehere? The ignition box... Is it grounded well? Is teh egnine grounded well? The valve springs... I think you should have enough with the GM 3100 springs but I can't recall what the presures are. Which is why I ask if it will ever rev beyond 6, or just in first. If it never would... I'd pull a spring and test it.

This is the first time that I have really opened it up to 5,500-6K. I have been taking it fairly easy to break in the motor a little. It really only does it when I hold it to the floor for an extended period of time. I still think that it may be getting lean or running out of fuel.

The carb is a rebuild that I bought. It had new reusable gaskets in it when I got it. I went ahead and cleaned it out and replaced gaskets anyway. I will check all of my grounds again, but I think that they are fine. I looked at my shooter and it is a 31, which seems small to me and would explain my bog sometimes. I have ordered a chrome box, 33-36 shooters, and 64-67 primary jets. We will see what happens and keep you guys informed.
