If you abruptly hit the throttle either from a dead stop or the car is cruising and you hit the throttle hard there is a dead spot where it almost just dies for a second then it starts to go. I've learned you have to roll the throttle slowly through that dead spot and then you can really get on it. It's weird. With the factory intake and quadrajet you could just pound the throttle and it would take off. I've messed with the carb and it's getting a good fuel mix, I just think that single plane is a bad combo for a street car.
