No problem. When I get it all correctly set I will be happy to do that. 8)

Okay, I think I got it adjusted right:

Flapper closed so the exhaust heats the carb:

With the flapper open so exhaust gasses go straight out the pipe:

Let me know if that isn't right.

If youve dumped the flapper, your intake will be constantly blasted with hot exhaust, which will actually worsen hot start probs. The /6 works differently than the V8s
