500 miles later with my DIY 318 rebuild...

Thank you Yellow Rose, Gliderrider06 and T56MaxTorque. You are the very examples as why I defer to your good judgments.
Today I will replace the lightest spring that is currently installed to a stiffer one. I will also go back to the default jets as advised.

I did not change the Distributor springs..... yet....

Thanks again guys for having my back....
This is number one ,in my book sir....
