I'm unable to get a clear picture of the carburetor right now, as the camera on my phone is pretty fickle about when it wants to function well enough. The carburetor that's installed is a Holley model 6280 if that helps at all.

Actually I never worked on one of those but I think they're very similar. My cars all had Carter carburetors.

My neighbor finally got a chance to look at my car. He's master certified car tech. He tells me the left side of the carb is clogged or otherwise not working properly. Solution should come with a re-do at the shop that did my carb. Glad to see 6months warranty on the receipt! Thanks for all of your help guys!
