Yes C.J. good article in the newsletter, well written. About the vacumm, you might want to verify that you are getting sufficient vacumm advance when the engine accelerates or is under a load. As you described, the car idles fine and revs fine but when you put it in drive it doesn't run well. Is that right? Does it rev up to about 3,000 rpm well in park (sounded good in clip)? Check to make sure your vacumm advance is working well if you have a timing light. If it is good, then check it with the car in drive. CAUTION! use parking brake and have your helper ride the brakes hard and don't stand in front of the car. If it works fine in park but not in drive you might have a vacumm leak that is not only affecting your vacumm advance but also affecting carburetor operation. I have seen this problem before. I hope this helps you. By the way, your car sounds really nice in the clip you provided and looks cool (at least the part that is visible). Nice ride!
