351 V6 - Running too Rich?
Any advice on tuning up my 351? I'm new to working on engines, it runs and drives, but seems to backfire when I get on the gas. My father in law said it might have a carb issue or maybe a distributor issue because he thinks it's getting too much gas.

Re: 351 V6 - Running too Rich?
Any ideas what the carb rebuild kit number is, or the carb #? All I could find was -
"Bendix Stromberg Model WWC"
