when i got the car it had a rochester 2 barell on it and it what defenitly starved on fuel at that time the inlet filter whas pluged .so i cleand that, and the hole carp for that matter. dident help, changed the fuel pump, dident help. replaced the carp with a used holley 650, witch i did rebuild . still no good so i replaced all the fuel lines, this made a huge inprovment on the fuel delivery. so i thought i hade fixed it, now the fuel filter is copmletly full(you could noly see a small amount of fuel going through it before)it idels great so i checked the float levels needed some adjustment used a vacum guage to adjust the mixer screws

the last thing i did whas to take a coil from anather car wierd it strait from the bat via a toggle switch to the + on the coil , the other side to the distributor it still whas acting the same but i need to try it a bit more
