[FC] speed and power, or power and speed

[vairmech at aol.com]

   One thing you need to look for is what size needle and seat did you use? There are some small ones in the older kits and that combined with a slighlty low float level and the inlet seat become the metering jet! 
  What you have described is a fuel delivery problem. Check fuel flow from the pump and pressure and see if there is any pressure bleed down over a short period of time, that indicates a failing fuel pump.
  Just a couple of things to look at.
  Just so Ya'll know we are in Washinton state right now vacationing in preparation for the Convention.

Hmmm,

   I wouldn't think I was at 6000rpm at 50-55mph with a 4-speed. The bogging 
down continues until I let up on the gas and then accelerate again without 
flooring it. I didn't want to see if it would stop bogging down if I kept it 
floored;
