diagnosing running rich

I copied the degree length on the tag since it only goes out to 20 degrees in 5 degree increments. Made a tape that attached to the timing tab with the extra 5, 10 and 15 degree marks on it. It may not be a perfect science, but it sure worked well.

Eddy 600  

Well at least you know you had carb issues , and I still think you had misadjusted floats or heavy floats or needle and seats sticking looking at those spark plugs and the issues you described

I hope whoever is rebuilding that Holley at least installs new floats also

Me personally , especially after you said the car hasn't run this well in a long time with the Eddy installed  

New Edelbrock AVS 2  650 for the street

The guy that will be rebuilding the carb has been in business in the St. Louis area for 25 years, Then retired the business and moved it into his garage. And the plus is that he is a Mopar guy. He will do me right.  On the other hand, Yes, this was a carburetor issue from the start. And I am actually getting good at pulling plugs on a big block with headers. LOL
