I had the same problem with my rebiult 230 in my wc-12 a few years ago.. After checking and resetting timing, rebuilding carb, replacing wires and coil, I was at a loss.... I was about to have the valves adjusted, which I new were dead on from the engine builder, but thought maybe
that was the reason for the power loss????

Guess what it ended up being... A bad condenser!! A damn 4 dollar part was causing the power loss and burning up the points as well.... I had a flathead 6 chrysler Guru show me by putting another condensor in line...Plenty of power after that! I actually left the secon condensor on for a few weeks until I opened up the distibutor cap and put another in...

Go and figure... Check this, Manny... Good luck
