Sunman - appreciate the guidance here. Definitely got my attention that I need to focus on the box.

One thing i should clarify about the backfire thru the carb. That is NEW. As in, happened once this past weekend right after I re-installed the carb following Dave's re-build and I gave it gas to check the throttle linkage etc. Definitely got my attention Could be that the one backfire resulted from me not yet completing the Holley tuning instructions. Then again, could be the box. Just wanted to clarify that the backfire was new in case I was unclear about that.
