Fuck this carburetor. I got everything back together, but it looks like the accelerator pump arm is hanging up on the TPS. FUCK! I was so close to putting it back on the god damn car.

I kick ass. Got the Q-Jet back together and the car runs great. No more knocking, no more check engine light, and it got a little bit of power back. Now that it doesn't knock, even in closed loop, I can set the timing back to stock. Right now I'm 8 degrees below stock, so the engine doesn't have any umph. What a pain in the ass Q-Jets are!

And yes, my sig pic should scare you because I am awesome.

Hell yeah q-jets are a bitch, btw, i think you should have a hairy transexual leaning over behind you in your sig, that would make it a little less scary. haha.. i kid i kid. You look glorious.

You're one to talk about sigs. You got a guy mid-club! Oh, and the avatar with the bleeding needle lip is totally nomal

So I brought the timing back to 20 degrees where it's supposed to be, now that the car doesn't knock, and MAN what a difference! It's always amazing what bad timing can do to a car. That 4500lb boat hauls some serious ass now!
