If you say so, Jim.  But there sure were a lot of cars holding me up in the 
turns. :)  I will check the float height. As for the fuel pump, I had no 
problems down the very fast front & back straightaways. I'm wondering if this 
carb will be okay for autocrossing. At least on a Holley you can add jet 
extention tubes.
