Please bear with me as I am not a carb guru.
I have a 70 SS 402 , bored .030 over, 290 heads, Crane 133942 cam,.515,.510 lift,Performer RPM Intake,Holley 770 Avenger carb .Accel blueprinted distributor W/points.I've done a search on bogging problems but don't know where to start.
The engine starts,runs, idles great,but if I floor it it will bog to the point it will stall unless I back off the throttle. Only when I mash the throttle not if I depress it smoothly. This happens both when I am in neutral or from a standing stop and sometimes I'll hear a slight pop like a small backfire. From a rolling stop it goes like it was stung by a bee, and will keep pulling through every gear until around 5000 rpm when it seems to stutter a little but then gets through it.
The carb has the factory settings,except I adjusted the choke a little to drop the idle.The electric choke opens all the way when it heats up. It has the silver spring in it for the secondaries.Holley blue pump with regulator and pressure around 7.Fuel bowl level can be seen through the site plugs.
Where do I start?
