Ok, so you guys all know the story of me going to mechanic..and him saying it was a blown head gasket and it wasn't... so i ended up working the poo poo out of my head and stage 4 cam, and anyways heads back on now, just put webers back on, hooked up the plugs and kicked her over... and wouldn't start properly.. so anyways checked the dizzy.. turned lights off.. the Fuicking spark was shooting in random places.. like the body.. the points are freaked! that was my problem.... i cant believe i didn't check that before sending her off... so tomorrow im getting new points and whacking them on and then i shall be good guns.. atleast i got my head worked out like a mofo.. if i knew it was just the points in the dizzy i wouldn't have done anything to the head... [:x)] but now it's done so im not all angry... but im gunna tear my old mechanic a new arse hole. [}:)]

better yet throw the points in the bin and get electronic ignition. Will run better for it

wise words, never have to worry about checkin ya points again, car will run nicer all the time, and any competent person can do the conversion

also out of curiosity do you know the power band of your cam ?

I H8 points!!!!! Recently had a dud set barely a month old lead me on a wild goose chase.. +1 vote for electronic.

Im going to get some new points today just to get me going. Electronic Ignition is on the top on my list for sure... before i found out it were the points i was saying.. Hmm electronic ignition.. should i? but yeah this crap has tipped the scales and im getting for sure.

I just made my second electronic dizzy from magna converted to esc bosch dizzy. because i have made one before only took me 3 hours the dizzy only cost $44 from local wrecker.

She will run sweet with elec dizz and those webers. Keen to see what your dyno result you get.. Mine has never been the same since removing the twins

Shes running! i started her for the 1st time and.... BANG! back fire lol little bit of excess fuel lol, scared the shiit out of me. Anyways i kicked her over again.. and she is soo bloody lumpy and loud... seeing it's night time im leaving the tuning till tomorrow or Friday. but atleast she goes and with changing the idol it was just running nice but you could tell it needed a massive tune.

Finally [88]

and Greenmk2 i cant wait untill i get her on the dyno... seeing i just got some cash from selling my ps3 i can play around some more and tweak some stuff just before i put her on the dyno.

Ohh k... i've been tryin to tune these 45's and they are a biitch...

at first it was going good way way down low but up high putting.. checked the point.. gave them a bigger gap, now it runs better.. then the twins wanted to be difficult... i think im going to just go get it tuned and dynoed next week... and yeah go from there.

it's driveable just sounds like poo poo when you try punch it.. so i guess ill be driving like a granny til next week

some carby joints still strugle with twins, so dont expect a great result for your first shot, what power u hoping/aiming for?

hoping for 80Kw +, but yeah... really am not sure what the old girl will put out, going to try put electronic ignition in before the dyno so yeah.
