Thanks for the info RestMod! The info helps and hurts at the same time. My 572 is running the EXACT same carb set up and stumbles/surges when holding a contstant speed.

Do you know what timing is set to (both initial and advanced)?

you're STILL having problems w/ that 572? I thought GM was looking into cam issues w/ it?

I have a new 540 in my 69Z it should be similar #'s to your with a dart block and Dart Pro 1 heads. My factory 12 bolt has not broken yet . With tire spin 11.10 @ 123.
