Problem with the goose is that many carburetors don't fit due to the jackshaft. My current carb is a Demon which sits on a 1" spacer and is turned around backwards because the vacuum pot will not clear the jack shaft. The Edelbrock and Holley Avenger off of my other 2 cats don't fit on the goose no matter what orientation. While trouble shooting the 'goose prior to removing the engine, I put the Demon on my '73 and it ran well (only problem is I didn't run it for long . . . just to see if it ran) I tend to think that its the carb too but its funny how it runs great until the car is warmed up. I think a carb overhaul is in order.
