what I need is a power valve idle mixture has no effect and I'm pullin 7" at idle.
I got an 8.5 pv in there now I need a 3.5.
timing set to 34* @ 3500 rpm and 12* at idle (set to builders recommendations).
It will run much better with the proper power valve.

power valve wont effect idle, tuning for idle quality can be done still. just an FYI.
