3 October 2018 - holley carb / spark plugs

Looks like the carb is setup a bit rich. Used a vacuum gauge to tune the primaries, and drove the car to test the current carb setup.  At idle it runs good, cams a bit lopey tho, still need to test the acceleration to determine if secondary spring is the right one.

Yesterday, removed all spark plugs and found that the plugs all look the same.  Each plug has a greyish to tan appearance on the electrode.  There is small amounts of sooty buildup on the top two threads of the electrode tip.

Still couldn't do accleration tests today, there ALOT of law enforcement folks on the roads.
