Re: Dies at Idle

850 for idle speed is a bit high. Try slowing to 700 or so. What is your timing set at with the distributor vacuum advance disconnected?

Was a non-resistor 12V wire ran to the HEI distributor?

Check the suction lines on the fuel system. A small hole from rot or mice can let air in and mess with fuel flow.
