Hi Kip, I checked on the hotter plugs but Napa only had the R45's in stock so thats what i went with. It idles really smooth but when i spray carb cleaner around the base of the carb, its starts running rough so I think I have a vacuum leak there somewhere. I found some extra gaskets today I'm gonna throw on. I know the valves are set. Now, I see that hole your talking about in the bottom of the carb base, and the gasket does have the same hole, but my insulator block doesn't have the hole and neither does my manifold. Well, i'm off to change the gaskets, maybe it'll help. Thanks!

a 30,000 mile UNMOLESTED original, now my daily driver! Original 6 cylinder with a rebuilt '66-'69 Saginaw 3-speed Overdrive. Synchro low! Otherwise, everything original down to the spare tire. Interior is like new. Needs paint, but absolutely zero rust.
