Oh by the way. I watched one vid where you cruised down the street without your hood. I think I saw a factory tachometer in the dash. You had a v6 so I believe your RPM with a v8 will be off. Aftermarket tachs are like that anyway. It appeared that you were redline while cruising haha.
carb, starter and fly wheel problems.

It seriously is all because of you and other, My car is even running as good as it is.
I would be so lost is I never found this site and all of your help.
I seriously appreciate everything you and other have helped me do.
Exactly now I know how to semi work on my car and I am getting even better.
Yeah It was redlining while cruising cause I never timed it right, now that i timed it, it doesn't redline.
I will take a video tomorrow of another cruise and show you all where its at on the tach its actually staying pretty low.
I had the hood off, now its back on cause now I have all the big things done.
Yeah i still have the v6 tach, i was told on here that sometimes you can take the dash off and behind the tach you can set it to v8 or something I am not entirely sure, but I looked at some tachs their not bad you can get a cheap one for about 15$, think i should do that?
This is how a factory PONTIAC tach is changed from 6 to 8 cylinders. The tab on the back is relocated. I am sure the other makes are similar. Most aftermarket tachs have a button on the back to switch between 4-6-8 cylinders.

So you think mine has the button on back, or should I just get a cheap aftermarket tach and install it?
