My 1970 SS has a Holley and it runs very rich,,,,the car does not have the power I would exspect from a 396/350....could the carb be a problem?

Is it plug fouling rich? An overly rich carb can cost power along with a list of other things. How is the timing set up?

Runs rich when? Idle? WOT?

Ok....runs rich at idel, sluggish have not pulled the plugs as of yet or messed with the timing. Be on the project today!
