I just got done with my 302 swap have a 302 ho motor, holley 670 cfm street avenger, msd coil, 6al ignition, and msd pro billet distributor, and im having what seems to be a timing issue i rebuilt the motor before the swap and i went by the haynes manual for a 302 ho and it says it needs 10 degrees of base timing so i start it up set timing to 10 degrees and if i feather the throttle i can get it to rev up to 5k and it idles fine at about 550 rpm that i set it at but the problem is that if i try and crack the throttle wide open from an idle it falls on its face and sometimes even stalls out so i changed the advance springs in the distributor so it would advance quicker and it does the same thing, so i dont know if its timing or a carb issue but the holley carb box says bolt it on and go...........................
