I have put about 50 miles on it so far. Having some trouble adjusting the carburetor to get it to start easier and idle smoother. Finally found it is the PCV that is causing the problem. I can disconnect it and plug the line and everything is solved. But I need a PCV. Seems as if the PCV is letting too much vacuum into the engine and starving the carburetor. I am getting an adjustable PCV valve that you can tune for the amount of vacuum you want at idle then how much you want at cruise. I drink cheap beer so I can buy more stuff I probably don't need for my cars.

I had a good friend in high school that his dad always had at least one or two of those that he bought at car auctions back in 75-76. He could pick them up for about 500 bucks back then if I remember correct. Me and him would throw his paper route on the weekends and after school out of them. Wish I would have known they would be so sought after back then.
