      sent more time on the weber today, need to invest in some jets,
      as i only have enough to mix around in primary side. which is ok as majority of driving is done on that side.

      Goes alright, will break traction in first easy, would do 2nd but damn clutch is slipping, any have a spare 210 mm clutch plate? LOL

      Getting sick of the ride height, i do have some JOM coilovers in the project car, which is no where near finished. so might pinch em till i can afford something like weitec or something. (looking at you Preeny!!! )

      quick vid, sounds tuff

          MSD 6AL ignition box,
          Got a steal on ebay ages back, never got around to fitting it intill few weeks back.

          Works well, better idle, smoother, revs cleaner

            So ive had spongey brakes for a while now,
            I think it was down to a worn Hardline from MC to Rear drivers corner.
            It snapped off near the MC, Made up a new line (what a prick, and it looks ****. Function over form atm though)
            Off to bleed brakes this morning.

            On a side note, still Putting away at jetting this damn carb
            Think i really need to invest in a AFR gauge, or a dyno run.
            Alot of setups ive seen people arent going 140 main in primary , maybe a 145 with a bigger cam.
            Mine feels best with a 150main and 170 air 55 idle in primary side, havnt started tuning second side yet.

                PM'd!!

                Yeah the msd is nice, can really notice the difference when you connect it. Easy starts, smoother, idle is steady, throttle response in low revs better due to bigger spark. I like it

                  Good to hear the old 16v lifters did the job for you, dude.

                  MSD 6AL is a full ignition box with a limiter in either a pill (resistor) or an adjustable dial.

                  I have a 40th anniversary 6AL in the box, never used at the workshop, actually...
