Howdy folks,

Well I finally have my truck running after a full engine rebuild. Its a 59 292 bored.060 with a mummert aluminum intake and headers. It has a mild cam. 
My question is I had it over carbed I think with a 625 street demon carb. So the engine builder recommended a edelbrock 1403 500cfm carb with a 1" open plenum spacer. I live in Longmont CO and we are 4,984 feet above sea level. Anyone out there live in co and tune this carb for a y-block. I have tried every different spring and the strongest ones ( silver ) seem to work best. For the jets Edelbrock recommended 83 jet for primary and 92 for secondary. I tried several different metering rods and the stocks 6552 seem to be ok. The truck seems to have a small bit of lag when you really get into it. Its not a stumble but the pick up i not instantaneous. Any other tuning hits would help tons. Thanks folks.
