I have a 53 322 buick nailhead engine in my 37 Buick special. It has been completely redone, new pistons, valves, everything. Also sanderson headers (fit great!), also pertronix ignition and flamethrower coil. Have 4bbl Edelbrock the basic one, model 1405, about 500cfm I think. Problem is I can't seem to get this whole setup running right. It starts just fine, and will idle fairly well, when I rev it up it sounds just fine. But when I try to drive it, it stumbles on acceleration, and when I get it revved up then it pops a little bit when I let up. I'm not sure what to check next, and can't seem to find many guys with knowledge in old carbed engines... any ideas of how you would start the tuning process would be great!
Thanks
