I put an adjustable regulator on my 86. I have an Autometer gauge(Sport Comp)on the cowl. When setting pressure(at idle with vacuum unhooked), what is a good setting to start with? My motor is stock except for normal bolt-ons. Right now it is at 44 with vacuum unhooked, then as soon as I hook the vacuum up it imediately goes to about 36-37. It seems like it might be rich. Plugs have bronze color to them. Any ideas? Thanks
John
