Tuning Edelbrock 1406.....HELP!

["chr gra" <c_bodycrazy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Everyone,

I installed the new 1406 last weekend and I am having a high idle issue w/ 
it (1500 rpm with or w/o chock on).  I don't know much of anything about 
carburators ( I know enough on how they opperate...I just don't know where 
to start adjusting it).

The only thing I have done was adjust the timing.  It was 20+ degrees 
advanced w/ the old carb; but, is now set at 5 degrees.  Is 5 right or 
should it be 7???  The car is a 70 Imperial LeBaron (440) w/ an automatic of 
course.  I'm really not wanting to mess w/ something I don't know about.  So 
please, whoever has adjusted this carb before please help me out.

I'ld like it idleing better before I take it too the muffler shop to have a 
muffler and rear pipe installed.  Pressently it is running no exaust 3 feet 
behind the Y pipe due to me blowing it (the muffler) up back in December.


Thanks Alot!!
