Hopefully that's it. I have a Holley regulator on it but I need to get a fuel pressure gauge so I know what I'm getting for PSI at the carb.

Well the compression is in the mid to high 150 psi range across the board so the motor is pretty tight! I think my problem is the regulator I have is a piece of shit so I'm going to save up and get a nice Mallory unit that has a return line hook up to bleed off the excess fuel.

So I have since got a Moallory regulator, I'm going to be buying a new Holley carb in a couple of days. I put my stock hood back on and got my floor pan, but now I have to weld it up. Here's how she sits...  
And my new sheet metal just sitting in there. Once that's done I will have taken care of the ONLY small bit of rust on the entire car!
