Still not running right ?

I have had the carb rebuilt and fitted, but the engine still will not rev above 6500 rpm.
So far I have changed the fuel filter cleaned all the lines out and had the carb rebuild, and after checking that all plugs are sparking, I have been avised to disconnect the exhaust to see if that is blocked, I will try this tomorrow.
I should mention that the car has been left standing for 11 years, but started every so often, when I stopped using the car it was running ok.
Any other ideas ?

Have you checked the timing? Is the fuel pump delivering enough fuel?

Lots of carb info can be found at www.sterlingmetalworks.com Sterling might be able to help you get her running right. Good luck...
