340 has no balls

Just a small update. Let me say thanks to everyone for the interest and the advice. I really like 340s and I will try my best to keep this matching engine Dart intact. Got home from work today and took a look at the engine . One thing I found out is that the air bleed screws on the Edelbrock carb are working ok . I turned them in and they did respond to that. I adjusted them back out to the smoothest point .I looked for any vacuum leaks / cracked hoses and couldnt find any.I need to get a hold of my old timing light and check that.Car seems to drive around ok and will be a great cruiser.I do have a concern about the mis matched ports on that ld4B intake and may very well change it to an performer RPM very soon.Ill post more when I can .
