Well I thought I had the center carb fixed! But apparently I didn't. Luckly I called Holley direct and they sent me a brand new metering block. I almost SHIAT when he told me it was only $54.98!!! I'll take 2. If this doesn't fix it I am leaning towards vapor lock. But that is worst case scenareo! I guess I will find out tomorrow. Stay tuned!

I found out that I was wrong!! (typical me). I told the guys making the final connections that there was not supposed to have
intake manifold gaskets. WELL I WAS WRONG!! SO what is it? A huge vacuum leak. I'm dumb. I bought some edelbrock 7225
gaskets and will have it fixed hopefully next weeke when they come in.

Oops! You can test for vacuum leaks using carb cleaner slowly sprayed around the gasketing surface.
