What about you Chief, yours looks like it's and angled manifold did you make sure your carb was level when testing?
I'm using a 4150 style carb and want to set the fuel bowl levels before I run it. I could block the front of the stand to get the carb pad level before hand, I never thought of it as I was building or I would have made the rear support so it could tilt and have the front swivel adjustable.
