- from Richard Good's web site. That way I should still be able to run regular gas. If I feel the need I can always take some more off; the tricky part is putting it back on. Thanks all, Al __________

- Isn't there a source for extra thick head gaskets? Even made to order thickness so that someone could lower their compression ratio (slightly) if they wanted to? On Sat, Jun 14, 2008 at 3:43 PM, Alan

- I have a knock sensor on my fuel injected supercharged TR6. It's mounted near where the ignition coil once lived but is now disabled. It was very effective at retarding the timing but because these s

- Rick--The MSD-BTM inition unit works well in retarding the spark timing. This Martel Bros. unit includes a remote control timing adjuster that can be mounted anywhere you choose. One can dial in the

- Kendall--Chapters in books have been written about this phenomena, but let's see if this can be shortened. PREIGNITION occurs when the charge (air/fuel mix) fires without benefit of the engine's norm

- Hi Dick, Thanks for the reply. It appears that most of my confusion came from lumping pre-ignition, pinging, knock, detonation, everything all together. Also whats becoming more apparent is that the
