I got and installed the MSD dizzy and man what a difference.  It starts right up with no problem and idles right around perfect.  I set the timing with the vacuum and idle with the vacuum advance disconnected and plugged.  When I took it for a drive it ran great with snappy accelleration, except from a start it hesitates just a little.  If I start out really slow and give it plenty of gas before starting up then I am fine but if I try to accelerate too quickly it bogs.  This would be fine but I am afraid that some day I will go to turn out on to a street and hesitate and put myself in a bad situation.  The carb has new accelerator pump that is gapped correctly, and a new power valve.  I pulled it into the garage and when I give it gas I can hear the air suck in when it hesitates.  Any ideas?  Oh it is a '58 f100 292 with a holley 2300, msd dizzy, flamethrower III coil, new plug wires and plugs.
