Having several issues also (surprise).....Throttle cable not pulling the Holly Carb to full open due to the kick down switch at the pedal....looking for a solution to that. I removed the switch but now need to either reposition or somehow learn more than I currently know....LOL.
Also having a miss at around 5000 RPM.....I have the GM HEI module conversion on a stock Dizzy with a large cap.....I sort of recall that my GW ended up with about 19 degrees initial advance to resolve that.....but that was 10 years ago....I haven't been near the J20 in weeks...currently in storage.
