That's ok I'm getting slapped around pretty good this month outside of Moparts. That's why I rather be here today.




Okay update.. It appears that the mark is fine and pretty much right on the money. What's really funny is the first time I bumped it to get close to TDC it landed smack dead on the 0 mark and I looked in the hole and it was right on top. Hand cranked it over and it immediately went on the down stroke.

Now's where the fun begins... I decided I had better take off the back bowl on the carb to verify that it had 80's in there and lo and behold what did I find? 86's!!

I put the original 78's from the front in and took it for a spin. I could definitely tell a big difference and it did hit 7K pretty good in first and took a good bit in 2nd to get there but it does only have 3.91's. Now I just need to recheck lash and watch the FP with a mechanical gauge while romping it. I also have a wideband setup coming to dial it in and hopefully will get this thing going great soon!

Thanks for all your help guys!
