67 GTS 4-Speed: Daily Summer Driver
Been a while, but really didnt get much done to the car. It was a major push to get another car I am working on painted, running, steering and stopping so it could be moved out to where I am in Pittsburgh to be finished up for the driving season next year. Which means when I go back to the familys place I will now have time to crank out some much needed work on this car (and the other ones).
I was able to get a little bit of driving in this holiday weekend as I was getting the car ready to be winterized. It is still backfiring, enough now to piss me off. I am going to make sure I got the firing order correct and the timing set properly, but I have an opinion that I may not have degreed the cam properly... Its not hard to check, but I need to find the cam card... Issue being that it is from crane cams and they are no longer in business. So if anyone has access to their cam card 683801 please let me know. I can still get some specs from summit, but I think there is more there. Ill have to check my records to see if I have it somewhere. But other than that there is a laundry list of smaller issues to get worked out like lights, leaks and adjustments and such. But it is currently washed and waxed sitting under a cover waiting for work and driving!
