Idled smooth but idle to WOT would just die. Part throttle is ok, doesn't feel like a 455 at all.
I did the initial adjusting/test. Accelerator pump shot, step up rods/springs, secondary air door and there were improvements in certain areas but there was something not right.
I opened it up last night and one of the floats was set 5/16" too low and the other almost 1/8" too high. I corrected that but couldn't put it back together because the gasket that goes between the top and the body was split between the float bowl and the secondary throat.
Both of those issues were not conducive to a properly functioning carb. It'll take a few days to get the gasket in and get it assembled. When it's back together I'll have more of an idea of how it should have been running out of the box.
Right now I was just looking for other folks experiences with a functioning SD as I haven't had on yet
