Thanks so much you guys, for the guidance and quick responses, i started out at about 1.5 turns out. Ended up with the driverside screw a half turn out and the pass a full turn out, rpm at 800 engine up to temp, verified timing and its at 16 degrees btc. The jets and rods shouldnt need to be changed i wouldnt think so anyway, they are still the ones that the engine was dynoed with at the engine builders. I may try to see if i can swing by his place one weekend and let him double check the idle mixture.
