    429 cadi big block ????

     



    i have a 66 cadi with a 429 big block and i cant get it to run right at all
    it runs rich and cant get it to idle smooth under 1000 rpms.
    the dwell is at 25deg the timing is 10 deg btdc the flotes are set at 3/8
    flote drop is 15/16. carb is a carter just been rebuilt but cant figure out what the middle large adjustment screw is for. if any one can give me some info that will let me get this thing up and running better it would be very helpfull.
