I’m thinking I should have gone with a 650CFM instead of 750 and possibly it’s simply too much carb for a stock rebuild with headers, sensible mufflers and a 90’s era automatic overdrive.
I’ve tried a dozen variations of jets and metering needles included in the 1407 tuning kit, first going lean and then going towards rich and it is still a dog off the line and gets the same 9mpg since we got it in 1981.

I’m not expecting anyone tune my carburetor by description over the internet but maybe someone has experience with a similar combination and might have some ideas.
I’m ready to order a 650 edelbrock or even rebuild the old Quadrajet but unfortunately dad modified it to idle on the cam he was running before I rebuilt the engine and went back to the stock lift.
Thanks in advance for any helpful comments!
