Cant wait to see pics! Dont see too many of them around any more. Before you go and change the carb, is it a lean burn 318? With the lean burn system, it might be a computer problem and it would have to be de-lean burned. You can tell if its a lean burn by the air cleaner. I cant find the pic of it on my 84 Chrysler, I'll snap one tomorrow and post it. Once you get it running right those 318s deliver plenty of power for a young driver. My Chrysler has the same engine and I've surprised a couple of my "challenges" with it!!
