Really? My dad owns a '66 Plymouth Satellite, 318 SB, headers, straight exhaust with glass packs only and I LOVE the sound it makes at idle and when cruising!

Replace the following one at a time and see if it helps the problem:

O2 Sensors

Also make sure you are getting 41-47 PSI of fuel at the Schrader valve with the car off.

Good luck and kill Rustanks!!!
