My 304 in my 76 CJ7 seems to run good after we tore it down and replaced gaskets and seals, but if I press the pedal down more than half way it sputters, backfires, and misses. It is the stock 2 barrel. What do you guys think it is? Fouled plugs, Carb issues, timing off? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am heading to URE this weekend. Thanks!
 
Your vote wins! The guy that helped me with the engine mounted a bracket wrong and so It wouldn't allow the Distributor to turn far enough to bring it in time. Made some modifications and it runs like a champ! Thanks for your input!
