Your talking the coil wire that goes to the distributor correct? Whats the best way to ground it?

Yes Im at roughly 15.

Ok, I will go and turn them screw in until I get a idle drop then back out somewhere up to a quarter turn. I have to ask again, will that make a big difference in the way it drives or not really noticeable

It'll make more of a difference in how it idles and drives at low speeds less than 25-30 mph. It won't affect wide open throttle, that's the carb's main circuit, which by your earlier description in post #87 may also be running quite lean, but go by Crackedback and 67Dart273 because their getting you there. Like mentioned earlier get the timing right first, then the idle circuit in the carb. Sounds like your getting the hang of it, Keep at it and you'll get it.
