OK, finally got it running pretty good. My vacuum advance was no good, so there was that vacuum leak. put on a different v/a from a donor engine and it works good, but the engine still ran lousy. I've had a couple of professionally rebuilt Rochester carbs from Carbsonly in California to go on a Fenton intake I ordered from Patricks. Patricks went under but I still had these carbs so I used one and the truck really came to life...for a minute. I had the truck running up and down the lane I live on just to check things out and one of my brakes stuck. Always something...lol...Thanks to everybody for all the advice and help.
