"seat of the pant" feeling.  Got the bugs worked out of ole Brutus.  Ear timing turned out to actually be 20 degree total advance, now set at 32 degree-- # 6 spark plug not fireing, now fixed-- now able to adjust the Holley carb.  On paper , he shouldn't be very high performance, but HOLY COW !  talk about seat of the pants feeling !  Maybe it has been to long since handleing a little power , but now I am really curious , just what the numbers are??...................................MO

My 340 Dart has modest HP & Torque "on paper" but really honks when you
hammer it and it is a blast to drive.  You also have room to grow your power
with your nice combination of parts should you desire to pass everything but
a gas station.
