If they are mech sec then you have an issue with the linkage or not enough travel in your cable. You will need to a hole close to the throttle for the throttle cable button. Take and send pics for more info. Too rich?? Need to know what jetting and pwoer valves you are running to help there and what you afr reading are, idel, cruise, accel.

well so far all i know is that its a holley 4150 hp 650(i think its 650 carb)
jetting wise is everything recommended by camden.(will get the sizes later)
and that it runs super rich (headers are red hot)
heres the carb

The original owner (Scott) had supplied a Holley 390 which comes stock with 54 jets, and were upgraded to 59 jets for street use as per atkins instuctions.

by lossening the bolt on the side of the dizzy and advancing it.
before playing with it go buy a timing light, set your engine to top dead center and see where you are at.
Mark your main pully at TDC with a piece of chalk white for leading and yellow for trailing, hook the timing light to leading 1 and check then trailing 1
I didnt have a locked dizzy on my setup so i dont know what you are looking for timing wise maybe Gary(84 stock) can help out with that bit of info, but i am almost sure he doesnt run a locked dizzy either. as a guess i would get it to 10 before TDC for leading.

aftermarket flywheel.
i have found that the pulley has marks on it already.
not sure if its tdc marked but it has 4 markings on it...guess i will have to take a crapload of pictures.
i think the dizzy is fully retarded? not to sure but the headers heat up really fast.

well take off the top inspection plate at the back of the motor on the top drivers side and and turn the crank until you see the counterweightthere will be two bolt heads in plain sight and TDC is when back edge of the counterweight is right in between those bolt heads.
