Thread: should switch to fuel injection?

Tweet

I had a camaro with a 396 with the same problem. I had plenty of cam so that was not the issue. I change carbs and still had that problem. What turned out to be my problem was the timing chain had jumped and the timing was off. I could cruise fine and accelerate moderately, but could not floor it. After my timing issues were fixed rubber was burning gain.

sh*t, I've checked over just about every possible thing except that thus far. If it's a mechanical issue, then I think the timing is the only possible one left.
If I need to check that, is it possible to do it with the engine in the car?
My radiator/pulley clearance is virtually non-existant so it would be almost impossible to get a degree wheel on the balancer, or read it if it were on there.
Are there any ways to check that without tearing everything apart?
