Re: V8 lack of power
An out of the box distributor after sitting for many years most likely has stuck mechanical advance weights, the vacuum brake piston may also be stuck, with dry lubricant. The Tasco (static) will not find these problems. Suggest you send it to Bubba for a refreshing. The problems after warm up sound very much like a bad ignition condenser. If you send the coil condenser and distributor to Bubba he can check them all dynamically. It may be a good idea to check the float bowl of the new Stromberg for dirt.
