    Oh, almost forgot to mention: The Alien anal probe thingie, we did not dorp it in there, we found it when we lifted up the valve covers. A little bonus from a previous (tired, or drunk) owner ... Well, at least it was not a severed finger

    The whole engine is made in Mexico... Andale! On the bright side, we examined both the top of it and the crank of it while the pan was open and everything in there looks GOOD.

    I also learned how to adjust the timing. I loved the whole light flashing trick thing. I had previsouly marvelled at the weird ruler with numbers on it near my crank shaft and wondered what it was for... Well now I know. And to see the "mystery, hidden line" appear like magic was some fun stuff!

    We believe my otherwose stock engine has a mild street performance cam on it. Eric did say he put a bigger cam in it but he did not remember which... (duh!) WE set timing at 4, it was a little above 6 previously. It seems the engine sounds and runs better now. I am not sure if it is my imagination, but the roadster also seems to be faster.
