sammyg2, again.....beautiful words to hear.
My intent with this motor is to constrain myself within the limits of the system with 6 or so # of boost and make that work the best i can.
If that becomes "not enough", it'll be time for a 3.2 or something else to go in.

Playing around today (i bought THE allen wrench), i followed advice and began richening up the A/F a 1/4 turn at a time while it was running.
The richer i made it, the higher the idle climbed.
OK i'm thinking, let me lower idle speed screw a bit.
I backed the idles speed screw off until it was evident that the throttle plate was FULLY closed and the idle speed screw was no longer in control.
Hmmm, lemme check. Nope, nothing holding it from going any further closed, the throttle plate IS fully closed yet the idle is still at 1500 !!!

Am i to assume at this point that my next mission is to locate and correct the vaccuum leak(s) ???
THEN, readjust the A/F mixture and idle speed.
