Rich idle can be lack of timing and cranking up the idle on the carb to get it to idle.

What's your initial timing?
Not sure what pics you would want to see. The smoke? As for timing, I'll be honest I have no idea what it is. Just as a reminder, nothing changed from the day before when it stated on the first kick over and ran fine.

The timing is a whole other can of worms. To be honest I never set it with a light after swapping the HEI a few months ago. I am sure the timing of not set very ideal.

I'm going to go pull the plugs and take a look after lunch. I'll post back up once I've taken a look.
