well theres nothing wrong but I dont know accurate my gauge is right now and I dont want to keep dicking with putting the fuel up and down trying to get a good spot...

Set it to the specs provided by your chip manufacturer, and leave
it for now.

Ok well some great fucking news today...

Light still dont work but thats not the fun part

I put my 237 regualator on to "KISS"

ANNNNNNNNNNNNN NNND  fuel pressure went from 44 psi to 48 psi... hmmm My gauge is way off.  Also it was 7 psi off from a local 10 second cars gauge...  fuck that its a new gauge..

Now the wierd thing is it knock more with the fuel at 44 (on my gauge) than it did at  40 satic(also on my gauge)


So I'll see what happens...

Note: I had the knock issue way before I even bought the adj regualator and put it on...

yah but Brain as you see... my gauge had to have been way off...

mine said 41 Morgan's 35
my 237 48  where it should be 39-43 static....

SO I was running lean...

BUT WAIT

I got on it a little turning and almost crashed at only like 6 lbs of boost... so ok no knock....  tried a little more boost 10 or so and 7 KR....

so that was the last of boost for today.

I need a new chip burned for the TA60

I think I'm just gonna get an extender and be done with it

I'd put the adj reg back on w/ a new gauge, and have a chip burned
for your combo. Then see what happens...

Well vacuum brakes are in...  Bought them off RedRegalT for $160 three day shipping and a stay down gas door came out to $195...

Easy to install.. the hardest part was getting the front seat out... after that it was simple.  

They stop great...  I like them alot.  We just bench blead them... didnt even bleed them on the car.  

Thanks Brian I'll put some pics up from the adventure

Bleed them stupid ass. It'll only get better. If I'm right, the cylinder bore on the master is bigger than stock, giving you more fluid volume. Embrace a real brake system to the fullest.

Sometimes you can get lucky, but bleed them anyways to make sure.

Not gonna lie... Kinda worried... Car sounds like shit and drives a little funny...

I'm gonna take it to Lou Czarnota and have him ass rape me to figure out whats up...

I have a bad feeling its a wiped cam lobe and there is some damage...  Just a bad feeling about it..  And I honestly am BROKE... I have no money left so I dont know what I'm going to do.

I told me dad that I was taking the car to get looked at and all I got was the you "Dumb fuck" you...

This sucks

I know that look.

There was no cam damage before the springs right? Change your oil. Cut your filter open. Look for bits of cam.
