Recently rebuilt/tuned my '75 Cali emissions carb..

-Cliff Rugles Book.. a must
-Cliff Rugles forum for Questions.. a must
-No one has mentioned adjusting the APT (or i missed it).. mine was way off after the re-build (this one requires a very easy carb modification, but worth it)
-Other things to consider.. Timing, Adjusting the Idle mixture screws, adjusting your idle and the APT made all the difference for me..

My truck was sluggish and ran like crap until i started dialing all those in..after many, many adjustments its running great now.
