Noted. :thumbup: Cool, I was teetering on the chrome trim route until I heard this. Did you have to glue it too? Silicon or seal adhesive?

Chromosexual 09-08-2009 22:57

the chrome trim I was able to get at my local Pep Boys has a bead of adhesive right down the middle of it..... thats really it Steve-O :)

Syncrometer is packaged and will go out with tomorrows mail.


Place over one of the two Velocity stacks from each carb. take your measurement. now place over one of the VS from the other carb. adjust the linkage so the measurments are the same. don't worry about pulling measurements from both VS on the same carb at this point.


Now set your ignition timing. around 900 rpms set your timing to 8* advance.
done.


we can go over the actual carb tuning once this is done. These are the most important things first.

And get a temp gauge hooked up. most important of all.
