RE: 390 will not rev!!

Sounds like tuning, although being off 1 tooth on your timing gear can cut back on rev's...usually well below 5700 though. Ignition is the most likely culprit.....beef it up as you may be losing spark. Also, the advance may not be adjusted right. As far as fuel issues go, the carb sounds plenty big, but can the fuel pump keep up? Is the fuel filter large enough? And oddly enough, is the fuel lines from the tank large enough? Fuel restrictions are easy....accelerate and when the engine starts to lose power, momentarily slack of the gas and try again. If it speeds up more than where it lost power, you arn't getting enough fuel.
This thread, so far...
