Alright experts, I would like your opinion on a needle for my HIF.
Currently, I am running the 1275 with a pertronix, a stock coil, LCB (Long Center Branch) header, 1 1/2 exhaust and Thrush muffler, MiniSpares alloy intake manifold, K&N filter, and the HIF6 has a BDL needle and Red spring. The 1275 may have a slightly hotter than stock cam (this according to the PO); if so, it's difficult for me to tell.
Car runs well, but feels a little lean. While driving, if I apply the choke to richen things up, there is a substantial increase in power. Seems I need a richer needle? Any thoughts?
