Thought you said last week it only spritzed a little rain in the afternoons... Possibilities: -Are you still running that questionable ignition? -Is converter stopped up? (try running around the block with it off car. Not only will that diagnose, but will really make an impression on the neighbors) -Check your timing. Too far advanced cuts into performance (13 degrees was probably for emissions BTW. Martin G and I both run PRV's at 10 or less). Make sure spark advance is disabled when timing, otherwise you could really be ATC. -If you're going to run stock vacuum advance (Mr. Historian), vacuum enrichment on CPR must work. Stock DeLo shoots one heck of advance spike immediately after throttle plates open. -Don't get overly excited until all vacuum leaks are plugged. Until then, mixture will probably be too rich (acceptable idle on leaking engine = too rich after vacuum drops).
