The mix across all four cylinders has been good. I'm still messing with individual fuel controls and feel I haven't dialed it in yet.
Thats pretty cool. Speeking of cool your exaust temps must be pretty low.

What ideas do you have to get timing back to where you are getting peak pressure with the crank 90 past tdc?

When I was thinking about using a carb to get lean for my rig with a vernier type prop knob attached to the distributor and adjust to best power once as lean as I could go.
