Pretty much have the B20B with twin SU HF6's tuned. Using 10 degrees advance, 10W-30 in the cleaned carbs, Bosch "blue" coil, Crane ignition trigger and stock distributor.

It runs fine and idles reasonably well (still have a sketchy brake booster valve, which rattles)

Only problem I have now (still) is, the engine stalls when I come to a stop following a hard- to moderate drive.

The carbs are I good condition and I don't find any vacuum leaks.

I may yet buy an in-line vacuum check valve and install this in addition to the flakey brake boster valve to see if this smooths the idle a bit more, and adds more power assits to my brakes.

what else could be causing the stalling?
