Super tuning car runs good shooting for great

Dropped the initial down to 16 last night. After adjusting idle speed screws and the accelerator pumps. Took it for a test drive. The manifold vacuum didn't change. Still at 11-12 at idle maxes out at 21 above 2200.

The ported vacuum though is now working perfect. Driving normal it peeks around 18 getting up to speed.
I took the distributor apart to change the mechanical advance. I lost the kit I bought that had plastic spacer tools to gauge it. So I'm forced to guess.

I was slightly off with a total of 32. I tested it out anyway.

Hooked up the vacuum advance with no pinging (unhooked it again but just wanted to give it a try)


It idles at 700 vacuum droppes below 5 and bogs intermentantly on take off. (Must be the power valve opening its a 6.5).

I really need to get the spring kit to test delaying the mechanical advance.

It's feels like a turbo is kicking in around 1500 rpm under light throttle take off.

The idle mixture screws are now out less than 1/2 a turn (were at 3/4 turn with more initial)

I live in a small town and work 24 miles away.

It is a street car

I appreciate all the advice.

I enjoy trying different tunes to make the car run better.

My last cam was a lost cause (way too big)
It's nice making changes and actually seeing/feeling results.
