Thames Update - 5/28/2010
.... a major milestone has been reached ........... the extensions to the frame have been finalized and the nose has been cut and mounted
... the nose mount has been squared, finalized, and bonded to the FiberglasTrends nose .... that sucker is extremely stong
..... the door latches have been installed and the door alignment is great ......... all latches work beautifully
.... fender alignment has been finished and they fit beautifully ......... the only fasteners yet to be installed at the fender bottoms
.... the nose fits square, tight, and the DZUS fasteners operate beautifully ......... the hood opening has been cut and lines up beautifully with the velocity stacks ........ we are, however, going to need to shorten the stacks again ............ they're still a little too tall (for vision and safety reasons)
..... on to the steering, firewall cleanup, radiator, and dashboardLast edited by Old Coyote; 10-17-2010 at 07:57 AM.
Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
