Do the screws only change the mixture at idle, or do they set sort of a base point for the mixture throughout the powerband?

I dont know what the ignition timming is set at. Where are the timming marks to chekc that (what I mean is hwere do I point the timming gun?) Do you adjust the timming by just turning the distributor? What would 'spec' be, like 15°BTDC?

The car will just stall completely out if you try to hit it from a stop. And no aceptable amout of clutch slipping will stop it. If your on the highway and you hit, it just goes, no drama. Panic stop, are you kidding me? it has 4 conner drums, theres no such thing as a fast stop.

The temp is just being read by the stock guage, I dont know how he checked the guage buthe said he did.

Thanks so much for your help, you seem to be the resident brain around here. And a mac user too, if you were a girl it might be love.
