Alrighty then, here we go.
 
 wheel clearance. Looks more than it is due to temporary wheel/tyre combo

 
Normal wheels but less informative angle


My, uh, bumpstop "clearance".

 
Ride? quite good. Has been like this over 2 years now and balljoints are still tight.

I'll try to get some piccies of my setup tomorrow.

Never had that problem but I've seen XF 34 adms that have a notch in the throttle lever that prevent the secondary from opening all the way.

I doubt it would push past the needle and seat being a standard pump - more like run out of fuel but the problem sounds like over fuelling to me, but I am miles away.

Have you thought of fitting a fuel pressure reg? No amount of adjusting the float levels will change anything if the fuel pump is pushing fuel past the needle and seat

Till it stops been a cow...

Give it more timing... 

Yeah genuine Holley are blue but I have seen some red and even black re-useable ones.  I always throw a couple in when I do a summit order - its amazing how many 'race' holley's that don't have them.

Blue gasket = re-usable, brown gasket = crappy fall-apart gooey cork thing

Unless it is fitted with re-usable bowl and metering block gaskets yeah you will need gaskets.  My advice is to get a set of re-usable ones whilst you are trying to get on top of this issue. 
 
possibly a fuel pump issue  as well but again hard to diagnose from here.

Also could use a bit more float level. Some argue that it's a fixed setting that shouldn't be messed with but my argument is that if it's not supposed to be a variable thing, why does Holley make it adjustable? In my experience, it's a very useful method of tuning, especially the transition from idle/transfer to main circuit. Maybe try the usual setting of just lapping the bottom of the plug hole then screw out the adjuster 1/4 turn at a time to raise it a bit. This might just cure your cruise/load hesitation. You might need to jet up a tad If it's still there.

If its stutter stutter stutter then take off it could be overfueling.  If it is a big hesitation then it takes off I'd be saying underfueling.  Very difficult to diagnose via keyboard as it could be plug condition, timing or fuel.  all need to be checked - process of elimination. 

I like to pull the bowl off to set float level.  Pull the bowl off turn it upside down and adjust the float level so that the float is level with the centre of the two screws that hold the needle and seat in place.  done.
 
so being a bit like being on a rodeo bull I take it you mean nothing and then everything.  I would say it is starving for fuel.  I'd be looking at the pump cam and the way it comes on.

Apparently it's meant to be set so it's at the bottom of the sight hole/window which is where it's at now (was nearly up the top of the window when I first got it).
Tried changing the pump cam to the second hole but little actually changed.
 
Best way to describe accelerating from low rpm (between 1,000 and ~2,100) is like being on a rodeo bull
 
Unfortunately I've just lost sunlight so I will have to give it another go tomorrow arvo.
 
Might have to looks at the idle mixtures. Haven't got a vacuum gauge for proper adjustment but as far as I can tell they're about 1.75 turns from bottom.

Stock 30cc should be more than enough. 50 cc would only be needed on a crossy if running methanol or E85. Makes no difference anyway if you just swap the pump and nothing else. You need to step up the pump cam to increase the stroke to get the extra CCs. 31 squirters should be fine but I reckon even smaller would be better. I run 28s on my 302 no dramas at all. Going bigger in your squirters doesn't give you more total fuel, just dumps it in quicker.

While on the topic of 350 holley fuel systems, what size acc pump squirter should be used?
 
Recently put a 350 holley/redline manifold combo on mine and slowly getting it tuned in. Not sure on jet size at the moment but the squirter is size 31.

I thought it was bread.
 

.

Did a later model commo alt conversion in my car. Had it "made" at a wreckers for $170 or something like that. Puts out full power at idle. I think it's a 70-80 amp alternator and it powered my stereo equipment quite nicely.

Why lord, why!
 

If I did that the bearing would come out past the balancer
