12a with cough ...

well not really a cough , but deffenately a bit of a gag ... i havent been getting the best from my carburator as i should be , i have no emmisions equipment and i cant figure out how my car is wanting to run . i think it is mostly my unfamiliarity to the motor and its behavior and the fact i cant really tune a carburater for my lifes worth ... any sugjestions to how i can get the thing to run better would be great .
here is my set up / 12a with racing beat street port exhaust , and a k&n air filter . i am considering upgrading the carb , but if there is a better cheaper aproach i will try that b4 i get in too deep with it

Is it an idle problem or under load or at a certain engine speed?

All the trouble shooting for carbs that you need to know are in the FAQs. In my sig is a link to the online FSMs, including the factory carb manual.
