i have a 302, with a holly carb, electric fuel pump. for some reason id dosent excelerate well anymore, the motor was rebuilt 3 months ago, when it was rebuilt we put an orignal autolite carb on it "brand new" and for some reason the carb messed all up <ie> loose screws in the carb floats stuck all the way up, leaking gas, so we replaced it with the holly. anyway. when i excelerate i hear a gurgling type sound and it sounds like its comming from the motor, i was thinking maybe to much gas and i should adjust the floats. just wanted to get some imput on this before try this.. any ideas?
