Re: Daverods project 66
It runs:metal: I'm thinking at first I had the dist. in right but it was one tooth off. I had it running but not very good. I thought it was my plugs so I changed my plug gaps back to what they were orginally. It was still backfiring so I pulled the dist. and turned it 180. When I did that I put my wires back on counterclockwise., thats when the real trouble begain. Dumb a$$. Here I thought I was being smart by taking a picture of everything before I began the swap. I must have check the order 20 times 153624. Oh well, learned some stuff and its running. Tomorrow I weld up the exhaust and go burning around. I did'nt really want to go sledding today anyway. I was still sore from my wipeout last weekend.

Re: Daverods project 66
you could always do the thumb on the #1 plug hole trick for a quick check, wherever the distributor head is sitting at will be your #1, and redo your wiring from there. i've done this countless times and works fine.

Re: Daverods project 66
Does it still blow air out the hole on the exhaust stroke?

Re: Daverods project 66
I was just turning it over using the fan.;) That was'nt my problem anyway. I think I was a tooth off.

Re: Daverods project 66
A good way to tell is remove the valve cover, and rock the engine at the timing mark. Look at #1 rockers, if intake and exhaust are rocking also that's #1. That is if I remember that right....:lol:

Put my rubber door seals on and got my mat in. Don't know what I'm going to do about the peal and seal? Thing runs super.:metal: Sounds great, not to loud untill you get on. So much for the paint on the headers. I have my timing set at 4?
