Unsure what to time too,need to remark bus fan pulley but thinking timing @ TDC with vacuum line off and let the dizzy vac and mechanically advance take me to just under 32 degress's @ 3500rpm total.
Pretty stock 1.8 with 8.4 to 1 compression and 36 Dellorto's. Input please TIA. |

Thanks, due to the compression I might keep it "safe" @ 30 degree's max and run on premium fuel,I can't road test this engine but need ballpark tuning to test run it on a pallet with g/box.
It will then be sent to the new owner and installed in a 550 Spyder replica for running in. |
