[ZR2]

Marty, so funny that you say old school. I did start the pull this morning before my lovely wife.......well needed help well say. I have had many carburetor cars and yes I agree pretty easy.....screw the mixture screw in until it stumbles and then back it out a 1/4 to 1/2 turn. Funny you talk about the distributor and using the different weights etc. I had a 71 454 LS5 corvette, which i redid the car pretty completely over about a year and it was the 1st Big Block I rebuilt. I built it similar to an LS6 but with a hydraulic cam and roller tipped rockers. I put an MSD Distributor and Box on it, but still used my fancy timing light to adjust the base timing and advance with different weights etc. I had the notes in my timing light box before I started this morning. The car had a Rochester 4 barrel on it which I tried to rebuild and it just wasn't right. I admitted defeat......but had a guy he was about 70 at the time and all he did was rebuild carbs. He had a 40 year old Holly flow machine. He rebuilt it for me for $130. He told me to stick with doing mortgages!!!! Once I put that carb on, it had a 100 more horsepower or so it felt. It would bust loose the tires loose at 25 mph in 1st gear with 3:36 gears. I have moved on to the ZR1. I had a 91 in the past and missed it. Before I owned it I didn't care as much for the C4, but once I owned it, my opinion changed and I love it.
