    Well, I fixed the alternator problem. Turns out that i shook loose an engine ground when I was working on all the electrical. The engine is running great now except I have to readjust the timing and the carb. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks again for all the help.

    Bump that timing up to 10 BTDC. It should run and accelerate better, and shouldn't ping. I run mine 14, because any further forward, and I hit the upper radiator hose with my distributor.
