I slowed the curve down to add less timing below 3000 RPM. The current rear gears are 2.56, so it tends to lug around town at 1800 RPM. Didn't want to be loading it heavy at low RPMs with a lot of timing. Once my 3.25s go in, I figure I can quicken the curve and get a better tune on the carb.
I pulled one plug tonight and it's still too dark. It's running good but the porcelain is only white near the end. Might need to quicken the curve to clean that up?? Right now the timing is 16* base, 19* of mech timing by 3500 and 12* of vacuum advance.
