Mike,
My airflow performance injection was VERY rich when I started. I have it managable now.. but still have to tweak it a little. At least I can start it now without risk of a fire :)
I'm using autolite finewire plugs. I got the size and heat range off of my Brodix head spec sheet.
As rich as things were I am surprised that it ran... but that MSD ignition puts out lots of ZAP.. and seemed to deal with whatever I threw at them.
Still have some programming to do on the engine monitor.. so it knows what is going on. Sure feels like a big step though.
Keep in touch and let me know how things progress.
Kurt

I too find the mixture a little rich at idle.
What kind of plugs are you running?
To tell the truth we still have to wire up everything!
We are putting the panel togrther now!
I hot wired the V8...I just had to do it!
As far as getting off goes looks like overtime more
than off! I can't even get all my leave and I'm
senior! This outfit is goimg down hill!
