It is hard to learn from a good mentor of carb experts these days. Agreed. I try and focus on one circuit at a time. So far I'm on the idle circuit learning phase with edelbrock's and holley 4150's. Learning the accelerator pump arm clearance setting sure helps with instant throttle response. To be honest having the 02 gauge has been helpful for setting up a carb after rebuild and revving it but obviously there is way more to driving it and getting into the transition slots then part cruise power circuit and then WOT etc. Without a 1/4 miles strip near by and plugs to read it's hard to hone that skill. I'd love a data logger 02 . Then at least I can somewhat have some info to refer back to so i can keep eyes on the road.
