Re: time to rebuild

well got an update on my rebuild. well broke the cam break in went well. truck sounded awesome just had one problem had it one tooth out of time. after i did that it took me a couple of days to figure it out but when i took the cap off i had to take the wires off to turn it one tooth. well it was getting dark and when i was putting the wires back on i crossed #6 and #8. lol... after that dumb stuff I finally put the timing light on and set it 8 degrees above like the tag said. adjusted the idle screw so that it idled at 900 rpms. changed all the vacuum lines and got them hooked up like they need to be. did one last check with the vacuum gauge to fine tune everything well it move between 20 and 22 did some adjustments and got it to stay around 20. well i think i got everything were it needs to be. shes ready for the road now all i got to do is get all the paper work crap out of the way and she'll be back on the road hopefully soon..
