Default Re: Gramma's Car: the new project!

Well, here's today's lesson in "You Get What You Pay For".

The Cloyes true roller set arrived today. Slipped it on in the "+2" position and voila! Perfect 3 degrees BTDC and 109 degrees intake centerline to match the cam card. I was all giddy - I just kept repeating the calculations and spinning the engine and doing it again and again just to make sure I was not hallucinating. I guess there's a reason they charge $100 for the timing set!

Now we can finally get to buttoning up this monstrosity.
