68- and 67! starting



That sounds a little weird. I have a 440 with a 750 Edelbrock (disconnected
manual choke) and I don't need to pump the gas at all, it'll catch and run
pretty quick. I do that when it's been sitting a week or so because I want
to crank up some oilpressure afore it starts.
Otherwise one quick stab at the pedal will make it catch immediately.

The carb is set quite lean too after I dynotuned it.
