I did spin it around to the other holes - about 90deg, and it is even further off. it seems like bad hole placement on the plate with A side...
I am installing the Pertronix 9MR-183 and the holes in the plate don’t align. It seems the B side hole aligns with the cutouts. However, the A...
I put the cams in and the timing marks were off but less than a less than a tooth with the belts installed. I pulled the intake pulley bolts (wow...
The intakes were grimey and ended up using fine sand paper on granite to clean up mating surfaces. It didn’t get it all but much better. I will...
This is the same info that I came across about a the capacitor. The stock radio was replaced and will just remove the cap and see if any issue
thanks - I saw that rotor on ricambi and didn’t know if it was applicable. Will add to the list.
Also wondering about this capacitor used as a snack for a mouse. Read up a little and seems like it doesn’t do much for the motor. I wasn’t able...
Wondering about the condition of my distributor rotors? Should they be replaced? They look worn and don’t match up to the part 95300317 on...

Thanks - just wanted to make sure since the seals were pretty old and leaking. Looking thru service records seems last change was 1984. I cleaned...
Thanks - I was going to try setting cams back in on marks and see how the pulley fits belt prior to removing the pin. I was cleaning up the cams...
Do you know any Indy shops near San Fernando Valley? Will look into plugzit.
Looking at the shims it is apparent that they have only been ran with one side contacting the cam. I assume flipping them when swapping would work?
I measured all the shims again and was wondering how close I can get to nominal clearance since they only make in 0.05 mm increments. I found the...
I ended up pulling the tail light - made for easy access to get latches mounted. [ATTACH]
The magnet only works well for picking up in the well after dropping. The access from the bonnet side is nil. Seems like the red taillight has...
