Default C3 Engine Mechanic IN Jax, FL

Hi Folks, I have an 80 C3 that was set up at 3000 Ft. Now in Florida and it's running rich. Does anyone know of a good mechanic in the Jacksonville, FL area that can get it dialed back in? Thanks!

Mike

You don't need a specific "C3 Mechanic". The motor in the C3 is just a Small Block Chevy. Find any mechanic who works on vintage cars and they should have no problem re-tuning it for you. Better yet, do a little research on this forum and learn to tune the carb yourself! It's actually pretty easy if you can use basic hand tools.
