'original restored'. Original is an unmolested car with only consumables

The heads are the ones with the Tee Pee shape on the
end. Are they 9:25 comp ratio? They came on the original

Just to let you guys know I finally found the miss at
WOT. I replaced plugs, points, condenser, rotor and cap and still no
success. Then I repalaced the coil and the miss is gone. Put the
original Quadrajet back on, set the timing by ear and now she runs great -- no
miss , no ping.
Cool, interesting fix. Just curious, was the coil original factory, quality replacement, or aftermarket replacement?

The coil I replaced was the original. I replaced it
with an aftermarket coil from Auto Zone.

sure they would ship to you. I have used Summit myself for around 20 years

Yep, it has run near perfect so far. Engine Temp never went over 190.
I had one minor issue tonight where it didn't want to idle without a slight
bit of throttle. I believe it's a problem of the IAT (Inlet Air Temp)
