[T3] engine in but have questions part 2


sorry i hit the send key too early to recap:
engine in and running 
timing set, and carbs tuned (kind of)
ran well good power
after 35 miles on freeway hardly any power limped to my house (the car)
now here is the deal on engine
j-tubes replace heat aexchangers
dual 42 DCNFs replace FI
missing deflector plates on the cooling tin
also no thermostat anything
also the outlets on the fan shroud are open
questions:
is it carb tuning? the car ran well when cool and on the freeway but once hot 
and stop and go it wanted to DIE
is it the fact that the air the carbs gets is preheated by engine and exhaust?
do i need to further adjust timing?  
give me some input
