[QUOTE="thejinx, post: 633457, member: 15775"] I may know the problem. Looking on Heritage site as the item comes with no instruction It states Engine timing should be set after installation. Use a stroboscopic timing light. Timing should be set initially at 30-32° BTDC at 3,500+ RPM, vacuum hose disconnected and plugged. Maximum advance, at 3,500+ RPM, vacuum hose connected, with no load on engine (car sitting still), light throttle, should not exceed 42-44° BTDC. as I have the old crankshaft pulley how do I find 32 deg as I have no rev counter how do I get to 3.500 cheers [/QUOTE]
