oh the car is completely up and running .....i have msd timing advance so i dont need the vvt, but the butt dyno says it may still be working since the vvt intake cam mechanism is still in place! .....i think i want to have it professionally tuned by someone local, but you cant dyno tune carbs ...can you?

Side draft carbs can be the best tunable carbs. I had some on an MG Midget and I got get much more horspower when I tuned them properly. I would imagine, that you would really appreciate them tuned. YOu will have a smooth power band and the best gas mileage when they are tuned, with smog control laws, I can't imagine being able to pass the inspection if they were not tuned properly. But I don't have a clue how stringent your state with smog tests and tuned engines.
you went for a carb setup when the ITB's are what make the 20V that much better....
you're using an MSD ignition, yet still pounded the firewall back and i'm assuming there's still a distributor back there.... which makes me wonder even more..... because that means you're still using the stock ecu as the MSD 6a's won't read toyota distributors/ignitors and need the negative coil reading which comes from both the ignitor and the ecu.... and if this IS the case then the ecu is probably really freaking out not having any sort of efi on it, causing it to run in some sort of limp home mode.....
the only way around this that I can think of is to use a distributor from a different car... but as I went hunting in the JY to get a 16V ecu to run a 20V, it takes more than one toyota distributor to get what you want..... which you make no mention of...
more info on this swap would be interesting to see

everything here is old .....i dont even think thats a running pic ......oh and my car runs just fine .....all up in the asses of TCs, late model Celicas, and corrollas so far ....until i get a new a tranny(that actually has 5th gear) i wont be testing it anymore
the only one you'll fool with dual sides is people who don't know, well i guess that's the point. but if sportrally88 goes beside me on a stop light, i can easliy know he's packing by the way he idles.
the way i see sleepers, is fooling everyone on site. not just a few.
