Flat spot, low power
Good day everyone. Wanted to get some advice here. Put in #48s and rechecked all my carb shims and adjustments according to the carb set up thread here. Now when I try and accelerate I get no real power, instead it's just a smooth, dull, flat rev with no *** behind it. I've searched and searched for a vac leak since I get a pretty good pop on decel even though I have PAIR removed, EVAP removed and block off plates installed.
Thoughts?

Mine did the same thing after a jet kit was installed and I think all that was changed was the clip setting. I think he had it set at two moved it to three - made all the difference. Others will be along to help my memory.
Well take off, eh.

Did the problem exist before you put the 48's in, in thinking this would solve the problem ? Or, you did the whole carb set up with new 48's, and now it
does this ? From a quick vue, you may now be too rich.
Other questions to ask. Is it throughout the whole RPM range, or just
a certain spot in the range ? Have you tried pulling the choke to see what
happens ?
