When we rebuilt the 73 1.7, I wanted to re-use the D-Jet so we put just the next step up from stock, Web Cam and lifters in the motor...
I have advanced the timing just a little to get rid of the clatter but it's still there if I really get on it... Should I continue to advance the timing or should I retard it ??? Already using 92 octane... 2-OH! |

Cap'n:
I agree with all the above...I'm watching the temp, but so far, she's never been over 210...So, I think we are good there...But I do agree with Blood red and you about the valves so I am going to look at that again... Jake, Can't answer that question, engine builder did the complete Long block for me...We did go to swivel foot adjusters so we did have to make the adjustments for that in with the rockers and mounts etc... 2-OH! |
