I just came back from a local car show and as I was cruising along about 55-60 mph it felt like the engine was surging. I have had the carb rebuilt and torn apart 3 times. As you drive along you can feel a slight surge, not a miss in the engine. As well it still has a hesitation when accelerating from a stop. The accelerator pump appears to be giving a good shot of fuel. As soon as you get over the hesitation the car runs up to 100 mph like a scared rabbit.
Another issue is the shift points. It shifts from low at about 30-35 mph and from second to drive at about 60-65 mph. This is under full throttle. I thought the shift points would be higher, maybe 45 mph from low to second and around 70-75 mph for second to drive.
I am thinking of changing to an after market carb, maybe the Edelbrock Street Avenger.
Any suggestions?
