Re: V8 lack of power
Can you tell us a little about the "new" coil? I don't rely on any of my coils unless I know they have been rewound with modern high temperature insulated wire and other good insulating materials. I trust coils rewound by Skip Haney. The condenser has already been mentioned, but I would add that it should be checked at ambient and at elevated temperatures. Do you know how much pressure the fuel pump is delivering to the carburetor? Could be too high forcing carb to run rich. Is your new carburetor a Stromberg 97 made in England?
