so i changed my radiator and thats all good no leaks removed thermostat though. moved around some vac lines. also set the timing and idle. this thing is really fast now. it revs out soooo fast. i wasnt able to break a tire before now i cant keep them from spinning. set timing at 10deg. i think the distributor is off a tooth though cuz the dist. is all the way towards the left, with #1 on the cap towards the firewall. WILL THIS AFFECT IT AT ALL?

no, it'll run but to advance it any further to gain the full effect of timing advancement.....you need to set the distributor in correctly. there is a whole section in the forum write up how to do it.

Yea, you should bump it up to 14 deg or so.
