When I drove my 74 TR6 from suburban Chicago to the VTR Convention in
Boulder, there was a noticeable loss of power as we climbed higher. The
autocross runs were made at a race track, and the engine would not pull
the revs I was used to.

I left the carbs the way there were as the car ran great down in the
Flatlands, and dealt with it while I was in Boulder.
