Bernard -
Glad to hear the carb got to you in good shape! Be sure you check out that throttle linkage of yours to verify that you're really getting wide open throttle out of it. Your carb ran really well on the testbed car out here, and we had several of the CCC guys laying down plenty of rubber using your carb - I can only hope it runs just as well for you! Have fun with it, and tag me back with any questions.
