Rich, Just to confirm the 02 setting is correct as best you know and the
timing advance is ok. Fuel filter has been replaced.Does it feel like it's
starving for fuel or maybe a firing problem.

  All right. It turns out I'm NOT going to Las Vegas to attend a
  wedding this weekend. This give me a little extra free time.

  Here's the issue I want to work on:

  I am STILL missing too much horsepower. I have a shallow acceleration
  curve. I can get the car beyond 4000 RPMS but it takes quite a while.
  I realize that 5th gear is NOT for passing but on relatively shallow
  grades, I can barely maintain speed by flooring it.
  I have driven Mike Cohee's car so I know this isn't my imagination.

  I have:

  1. All new fuel components.
  2. All new ignition components.
  3. Eliminated all the vacuum leaks I could find.
  4. Verified the timing & that ignition advance functions correctly.
  5. Set the CO screw to match Mike's setting (and the manual)
  6. Verified vacuum hose routing IAW the diagram in the engine cover.

  I am missing a functional WOT microswitch but this is not the sole
  cause of my problem. I intend to get into the evap canister area to
  check for more vacuum leaks.

  Your suggestions are welcome. Thanks,

  Rich
