    Make sure you have the plug wire firing order correct. It is incorrect in more than one book that I have seen. Even tripped me up after a head gasket job on an SC once.

    Well for those that still care, project is still alive. Baby has a slipping transmission, and in need of a wideband O2 sensor. Since my last post, I've had some health issues crop up, and cannot stand till my foot heals. More fun to come. Dyno work has not been finished, due to slipping transmission. ( bel lcrank was for a column shift and wasn't playing nice with the floor shift.)

    Note I also moved to Florida, so if any members are in FL between Vero Beach, and Boynton Beach, we can have a grip-n-grin.

    Cheers
