Tuning the fuel system- Lemar Walden Automotive

I was wisely guided to Lamar Walden Automotive for advice on tuning my system. Lamar is famous for his high performance 409's but he can work on anything...even a Ford. During our discussion, Lamar suggested that I go back to the 650 CFM carb and wanted to address the carb angle. The carb in a Pantera actually leans forward due to the engine placement which makes it challenging to adjust the floats, etc. Because Lamar has a full machine shop, Lamar took off the intake and machined it so that the carb would sit flat. He also hot tanked the manifold and got it nice and clean. Now the Pantera is running just right without any flooding issues. We did have some issues with the idle, we looked for a vacuum leak and couldn't find one. It was also very cold and the car seems to idle OK now that it is warmer. Anyway, I was very happy with Lamar's service, prices and workmanship.
