I have done what you have done but without the cam and have posted befor the settings you require you will get about 170/180 but the inlet manifold is the final restriction, but it's up to you if you think my findings are any good.

Just a quick update to my set up. I verified the secondary was not opening up (paperclip check). I replaced the vacuum spring with the Holley "orange" spring and it is opening up now and has a bit more umph at the high rpms. Still lots to uncork though. :up

Waiting for spring to complete tuning of the carb. :yawn I replaced the secondary spring with the white one and it runs better but it is running out of fuel at the higher rpms (flattens out and then breaks up a bit). I will replace the secondary metering plate with a quickfuel billet metering plate. Here is some video to show status.

The car runs a bit better now after a few more break in miles. The oil leak was fixed when I replaced the fuel pump. I think the leak was coming out of the oil pump bolt holes. I put a bit of sealer on the threads for good measure. Now a few drops of trans fluid on the floor. Hopefully an easy fix for that then on to dyno to tune it.

Looking pretty good Brian and plenty of finishing jobs to keep you busy next year.
Nice scenery around where you live, what part of the States is that?
