Wow, exact color scheme/interior as 21169 which I sold 5 years ago.
Still need to watch Episode 3. Bought Prime just to watch it and Amazon tell me that my TV will not stream "The Grand Tour". Everything else...
OK, that made me laugh. Around me, it is the clapped out Honda's with the 4" tip that sound like a weed whacker or leaf blower. Honestly, I...
You know what they say: "If it's too loud, you're too old." LOL That said, I have a Corvette with a 496 cubic inch big block and sidepipes,...
Just ordered one. Should get it first week of December.
No longer listed on shapeways. What happened? I was about to buy one.
Well, swapping caps, resetting idle mixture, and new plugs solved the problems. #5 was running rich and the mixture screw had backed out a little....
Gav, Good questions. I have not checked the whole range, but the other day I check it and was getting 13.7 to 14.1 at idle. Tomorrow is...

Thanks for all the advice guys. Too tired and cold to work on it last night. May squeeze in some work tonight but got to vote first. Probably...
Very good advice. Tonight she gets retimed (if I have time, LOL). Plugs are currently BPR7IEX. May replace them with something a bit hotter....
Update #2. I made some marks on the cams and seals when I did the timing belts this past spring. I can see three of the four marks with the belt...
I am going back to basics. Will check the cams alignment and pull plugs again. Did just adjust idle mixture so may have gotten some dirt in a jet....
'77 GTB, Pertronix ignition, Hemi wires with no extenders. So, thought I had found the rough running problem with a missing center contact in...
Update: Pulled distributor caps and the rear cap was full of brass shavings. Also, when I pulled that cap, the center carbon contact and spring...
