Daytona universal carb is on and runs great. Only thing I had to do was shorten the universal throttle arm linkage with an angle grinder.

I have looked at those universal in the past and I'm glad it works for you and solved your problem. I just live with my problem, under normal right turns like at intersections there is no problem, only a really sharp turn like entering a driveway causes the engine to stall. I just prefer to keep my original old glass bowl Holley .

ok homie two questions -

first why would you ever set something by the BDC - just odd and i'm a curios man so why would set anything involved with timing by the bottom of a cylinders travel?

the second is more for form - what do you wish this thing to do ? what do you want your driving experiences to be ?
