Here is a little info on the M that has me baffled. It ran good nice fuel mixture. Then I added a set of Fire craters and milled the head. Now I have 180 psi +/- 7psi on each cyl. One word describes the fuel now LEAN. I drilled the mettering stem out with no luck. It is so lean that the inside of my exhaust pipe is went from black to white so have plugs. any comments will be appreciated. One other thing I did not test compression before what is normal flat top 4" psi ?

Anywhere from 100-130psi, depends on which head is on it. Can you flood the engine when you back the adjustment out all the way while the engine is at full throttle? 180 psi is pretty good, is it a 281?? or 264? First, check out the flow coming fromthe line to the carb, it is possible, that you may be sucking the fuel clean out of the bowl, and may need a fuel pump,, Also, did you drill the main jet? Is the jet, and the metering stem holes you drilled the same size? If you did not drill the main jet, and just the stem, go back and drill the jet, if it is still not getting fuel, increase the JET size 2 more sizes, on the main jet. Like I said, you have to find the size of the main jet, and the rule of thumb is 5 sizes bigger right off the bat, same size for the metering stem holes, some higher compression engines, may take 6-8 sizes larger.
