I am going to check all of the clearances on the set up as it sits now before I do any adjusting of anything, but thought I would run this by everyone before I touch or move anything. Thanks in advance.<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal> And just as an update, I got the OA6 Rich needles in now, I brought both jets up in the carbs evenly and then let them back down 12 flats each, so I've now got a base line to work with. I am re-installing the alternator conversion that was Mickey Moused into position with the Moss/AH Spares kit, which is quite nice nice and then I also just got a Snap On timing light so I can set the advance accurately. It's coming along, slowly, but that's okay, I'm in no big hurry, I just want it right as I plan on driving the wheels off of this car.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal> Thanks again for any information you might pass along!<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Steven Kingsbury <o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal>Hopped Up BN1 <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
