answer post #9/ which is mine on the timing tab. if you are using the wrong timing tab it will never be timed right.
1. did you remove a carb intake and swap another one?
2. or did you swap a fuel injection inake for a carb.
if #1 do what i said in post #9.
if it was carbed before then find tdc and restab the dizzy and retry it all again,.

Well, i set it so the groove is about 2 inches from the right of the timing tab and the engine is now running smoother than it ever has and a noticeable power increase, i guess something was messed up when the rebuild was done because it runs like its on 5 clyinders when the groove is anywhere near the timing tab.
All is good now though, thanks for all the advice, really is appreciated.
