when i replaced the lifters, i checked out all the lobes, and everything looked pretty good to me. one thing that seems wierd to me is the fact that when the car is idling (or trying to) the carb whistles really bad. before, all i could hear was is sucking, but not like this. i dont know what the deal is with that, but someone told me that id be better off with a holley, and i think i found one, but i still am not sure if that'll solve my problem. i would replace the cam, but if that doesnt solve my problem either, it's just taking money out of the new-motor-with-forged-pistons-and-rods fund, and that fund is growing slow enough as it is...
