    I haven't made it in yet, will get to it Saturday. I have added an electronic fuel pump, Carter mechanical was 6psi and pulled to 5 under load and got a fresh carb. I am thinking combination fuel pump and float issue at this point, as it even happened going into the coner a few times with the gas to the floor. We had the float over 1/2 way up the glass and it worked better, lowered it and it got worse. Might be the stock Dorton plastic float won't work for this application...?

      The Dorton float with the right wedge (there is left and right) is the best one to have it stands up to all the fuels and is wedged so it won't shut off the flow prematurely, I had problems with the carter stuff as well.....run the holley blue with a regulator is what has always worked for me!

        Got the new pump installed last weekend... Will be out to practice and race on the 14-15. I really hope I have this fixed, my kid is getting pretty butt chapped over this deal.
