How many degrees of mechanical advance, how many degrees of vacuum advance? Not really sure on that but have around 30 total.

Which carb are you using? Had three on it started with a Holley SA 650 then 1406 EDL and now with a QF Brawler 670 which has been the best so far.

What is your idle rpm in park and in gear? Around 1100 in park and drops to 500 in gear.
I had to borrow a tach as mine took a dump and it will be a bit before I can get another one. Also with the HEI I ended up using 1 med and 1 light spring to get it to drive right, runs fantastic at the moment it's just the idle that's funky.
