Plugs, like the compression ,are all over the place color wise- Some sooted and some not. I bought the carbs stock but Rick Parker suggested a different idle just early on. I also spoke with Jim Inglese and he got me to change most everything based upon the engine description I gave him.The parts that came with the carbs were more for a larger displacement I think. An old post here will show that I was complaining about fuel spurting from the stacks. Like reversion but at idle. It was scarey but turned out to be the floats. They were all set wrong. Changed/adjusted them and the spurting stopped.
I'm going to go over this thing tomorrow and look at some of your suggestions. I felt like I was so close to getting this car done and now this seems like a real confusing set back.Thanks, Jon
