Finally got it running. But running like a bag of nails. Not all plugs are getting fuel any ideas ?

Excuse my ignorance, but the V8 isn't injection, is it?

Are you saying some cylinders aren't getting fuel from the same manifold as cylinders that are getting fuel?

It's twin carbs and on V8 one carb feeds 2 cylinders on one side and 2 on the other...just spent today stripping down my V8 Zeniths as choke rebuilt wrongly by previous owner...
