    The floats look good. I have those clear sights and the level is just right. Thanks for the idea though. After it cools down (hour or so from now), I will pull the plugs and look at them to determine if I am too lean). This carb was too big for the big cam I took out (as it is set up), so it's still too much carb for this smaller cam.

    Maybe I am way too retarted (timing I mean)? 6 degrees at 2000rpm with the vac line hooked up is too little. I mean, I should be running 10 degrees at idle with no vac line.

    Tommy: Your right, I forgot to drill the hole (I do one 1/8") but I really don't want to drain it to do that at this point. We'll see how it goes, but I may do that later if I still have probs.

    Just to be 100% sure, CCW is to advance, correct?
