It came with the butterflies drilled, I assume for a wild cam of some sort. The thing is, I cant get it to idle any more than a really lopey 500 rpms or a shaking the car 1200 with the pedal in.
Is this way too much for a stock cam or should I be able to compensate with idle screws? The A/F guage reads full rich but it is never accurate anyway..
I DID fog the cylinders (Pour oil in them) after removing the heads and scraping the carbon off the stock pistons. How much should that interfere?

What happened to your 670 Avenger? You might try putting it back on to see how it idles. You might also do a temporary repair of JB weld on the holes in the butterflies just to see if that will fix the idle problem with the other carb. Just a couple of thoughts.
