I have a edelbrock 600 electric choke on a 289 with 302 heads and a mild cam. The average alititude here is around 3000 feet so I leaned it down 2 stages. It is still seeming like it is bogging a little when the loud pedal is pressed and I was debating on leaning down a little further. Any ideas?

Try about 2 to 4 degrees more timing (advance) before leaning the Jimmy Carter out anymore Dave.

Leaning is the wrong way to go to take out a bog.
