Post Warmed up Dizzy

That old stock HEI was gettin pretty tired on the longhorn. Tonite I set up my spare,& added an Accel coil & module,& a fresh pickup coil. also did a little welding on the slots to limit the advance (to run a little more initial). Dont know where its set,the timing lite took a dump,so i had to set it by ear......good thing im only deaf in one & cant hear out of the other! hehe. Any way ,it likes that hot coil,starts quicker, & responds better. Got the exhaust finished last week....Hooker comps,2 1/2" pipe/H pipe & 40s flows back on with turn downs........ready to go roast some rubber!!! 69 longhorn 40 something,but goin on 18!

I think you could be right Alexmart1.....it probably is 17!!!I can drive pretty much any of the daily drivers,no prob......when i get into that longhorn,it just must have a light peddle(tends to suck my foot down!) It runs good where its at,but I think i need to see whats up with the timing lite so i know where to set it next time......69 longhorn.
