well i have a lil prob.. now.... it seems that ever since i put new plugs and wires on her to get it runin better ( which she does, runs pretty damn good) she seems to abe a lil slower than before... what gives... slow and for some reason i can liek actually watch the gas gauge fall... i did play with the timing a lil.. i think it might have to do with that... maybe, maybe not.. who knows..

i've been rackin my brain for a while and all i could come up with is maybe it's the timing that i played with... we can't read the marks on the damper no i went based on how it sounded...like i said thouhg the car runs great.. just seems slower than before...

i set mine @ 12 degrees above top dead center, but if you don't have a whole lot of mods then stick it at 10

bad ***, i hope this concludes your probs!!! i think that i finally figured out my prob. we're pretty sure that it's the ignition modual that goes on the distributor. i just got the new one, and am about to put it on, so let's keep our fingers crossed!!!!!!
