i dunno we are saving too much day light.
update: the engine is an 81-82 block rigged to use the stock oil cooler, dizzy is now in correctly as is the pulley (i think), all i need to do is put sparkplugs in it and see what happens.

Idiot right here was thinking it was getting too much fuel.....no, its not getting enough, which narrows it down, a lot. And where in gods name is the damned fuel filtert, i couldnt find one when i got the car, it was no where to be found, so i said **** it and stuck on one near the firewall so i could moniter the fuel flow/content from up front. well if the filter is not clogged, because the only one it has is the one i put on, and its clear so i can see it, but what would it be...pump?...should do a pressure and volume test then right? i mean if the carb isnt getting enough fuel, the its somewhere between the carb and the tank...right?

The fuel filter is at the back of the car near the fuel tank and sits just before the fuel pump. If you get under the back of the car near the rear wheels, you'll see it tucked up in a little bracket.
