Ultimate newby
I found this forum about a week ago and finally decided to join up. First of all, this is the first forum I've ever actually joined so bear with me. I'm 22 years old and I live in Atlanta GA (College Park to be exact). Right now I'm away at school in Ann Arbor MI (Go BLUE!!), but my plan for the summer is to come home and start rebuilding my 1981 camaro, a gift from my aunt. This will also be my first project car. It needs work, both cosmetic and mechanical. I'm pretty sure it has the original 305 in it, which I hope to get running strong until I can afford to drop in a 350 or something similar. I also want to rubuild the motor in my 67 Ford longbed. I've been told it has a 351 Cleveland, but I'm not sure. Anyway, Just wanted to say hi and I hope to hear from you guys.
Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
