Jeff your not at tdc.....one time the piston is at the top the rotor will point at number 6 the next time the piston comes up to the top the rotor will be pointing at number1....thats because the cam turns 2 times for every turn of the crank.....

Where ya been, did you bring a note from your doctor?

I still think the reason that the rotor is pointing at 6 when he's on TDC on the harmonic balancer, is that the piston is on the exhaust stroke and not the compression stroke....lol

"950 HP body worked to flow 840" > Huh?
90 square sounds awefully big on the jets, I run a 1050 dominator on my 496 BBC and that's what I run.
If your having an off idle stumble make sure and check your acellerator pumps, you need a good squirt as soon as you crack the throttle.
That would be the first place I'd look before I started yanking jets and plugging power valvesand stuff even though I plug my power valves, just dont get ahead of yourself, you might cause another problem before you fix the original one.
Trust me on this one >Do one thing at a time and put back what DOES NOT fix the problem.
Be prepared when you go to the track to make several adjustments, bring plenty of tools, spare carb parts and it wouldnt hurt to have a resisdent guru handy for assistance and play with it till you get it right.
Goodluck, Cp
