Just picked up this old beast. It has been sitting in a barn for approximately 50 years. I changed the oil and filter, ultrasonically cleaned the carb (not original Holley 1909). New plugs and cleaned up the points. Had to pull the head to unstick a couple valves and of course I broke one, but that's all fixed now. Installed a new head gasket and adjusted the valves. Got it to fire up and run, but skips and pops awful when its cold. It did not have a thermostat so it takes awhile for it to warm up. Once it has warmed up it runs much better. It will idle smooth and take fuel, but when it cold it sounds like a popcorn popper. I would like to change the distributor cap but is has a Flat Top Cap and I cant one one to fit my dizzy. It has a Delco Remy 1110060 0A19. Any other thoughts...It seams to be getting a lot of fuel down the carb. Wondering if its flooding when cold.

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
