Question
Hey I got a problem, my camaro has a 350 bolted to a 3 speed and when i floor it the engine seems to bog down, could it be timing or worn down lobes on my stock cam? Maby even the Edelbrock 600 carb needs some work done on it.

HI well what carb is on ot, and what is the trimming set at. also do you have any vacuume leaks. check, plugs,cap,rotor,wires,for leaks, look at the motor when it is real dark out when running and look for sparks., take a cyld. comp. test. and even check the push rods and valve springs. is the choke sticking on you- if it is a vacuume choke-make it a manual one
