Default Re: 276 flathead test drive big improvement.........but?

5" of vacuum is not good. What is your idle speed? Spray some carb cleaner around the base of the carb to see if it has any effect. Also try advancing the spark some more. You really need to establish a timing mark. Check the archives for the procedure.
