Kev,
A while ago a friend of mine had a Ford Granada that spit up
when the accelerator was depressed. The other symptom was it had
no high speed (engine speed) ability. That is, the egine sort of
"bogged down" at high RPM's. I thought the carb was at fault, so
he bought a rebuilt one, but it didn't help. To make it short, I
will tell you what was wrong, the catylitic converter was plugged
up. It seemed that the exhaust wouldn't leave the cylinder on the
exhaust stroke and when the accel was pressed, some compression was
going back through the carb!
I don't know if this is your solution, just a personal anectdote.
But I wonder, Did you increase exhaust flow to match the increase in
intake flow?
