Interesting. Never really noticed that with mine (same specs 4.11/C4, varying tire sizes over the years, 31/32/33/35).
Wonder where your timing is at or if still using factory air cleaner (did ditch that many years ago - too restrictive). Also wonder if a larger venturi Autolite would have helped you too if you were running a stock 1.08.
Also, I guess I should have said the 2100/2150 is perfect in a basically stock form setup. Stock motor and Autolite are never going to throw you back in your seat, but you will get kick ass, turn key, reliability in a multitude of sea level weather conditions, great off road and off camber situations, and a carb that is argueably the easiest to rebuild of any other out there.

I love the 2100/2150 carb. But I had to replace mine when I went to 4.11s with my C4.
That carb works great until you stomp on it and try to pass on a two lane. When the C4 kicks down, that poor little carb just plain runs out of air.
Too bad, since it runs perfectly for most other cases.
The four barrel version would probably work great, but Ford didn't use many of those. The price is prohibitive for good used ones.
