I have a Weber DCV on this thing with a Mallory Unilite distributor that uses vacuum to advance. What I've discovered in my preliminary tuning is that the car runs better with the vacuum hose disconnected and plugged off at the carb. It runs horrible at idle with the vacuum hose connected. I also found that setting the timing and the idle by the book (10BTDC and 900 rpm)and the Weber mixture 1 turn out from bottoming yield the smoothest running.
I haven't been able to put the car out on the road yet, but I am wondering if I need to use the vacuum advance at all, or go to a mechanical advance.
Also, I'm a little concerned that I am too close into the stops on the mixture screw. Should I be concerned?
