Wow! Thanks for the responses.
I'll check those problems.
Atomarc- Solid lifters.
Baldy-new manifold gasket b/c of a previous exhaust leak. There are two holes in the pipe where the heat riser used to be. Would that be enough?
Wrenchbender- The dist does move a little when it shouldn't I'll re-check the mixture/ timing w/ vac guage maybe.
