1. Post this in the garage, you'll get a better response.
2. Putting your phone number out for the world to see probably isn't a great idea
3. Retype your title to read CAR

Heat.
Your distributor needs to be cleaned and re-greased...cost is 0.05 cents
your advance plates may be stuck...they do that when hot.

Also, you might want to change out your distributor cap. If it is slightly cracked, the high RPMs will cause problems, and a cracked cap can be all but impossible to see.

I don't know how far you are from Venice Beach but Otto's in Venice Beach is a good place to go. John is a crsty old guy who knows 914s better than I could dream.
