I routinely replace these carbs for Roush customers with night/day performance differences.
Hi Brent!

I was buying the car with the carburator. It was dyno tuned by Dennis Olthoff. Last year the results were ok but not this time. My friend is working as a professional mechanic and working a lot on older cars. But he was not sure what it is, (he thought it could be the powervalve) so he told me to ask people which are more familar with this carbs and engines.
It would be great to get this thing working again - but in winter i will buy one from you cause i have reading a lot things about you and your shop. And have reading too that this Street Advenger is only a ok solution.

Peter

PS: nobody was screwing around this carburator since the good resulst from last year and timing and ignition is ok too
