Alright guys, progress has finally been made lol.
Granted my hands are frozen and typing is hard, here goes. I have blocked off the middle emulsion ports on both metering blocks, as well as moved the IFRs down. Drilled out .028 and they are below that other hole. I’ll have a picture below everything.
I measured the emulsion holes and they’re just about .028”
The bleeds are true to stamping, IABs are .070”, MABs are .028”.
I have also drilled and tapped the t slot ports on both sides of the main body and put in a .078” hole to start.
Last thing I did was put in the blue pump cam. I already had everything inside and apart so I figured I’d just slap it in. It’s currently on hold 1.
It’s currently almost in the negatives with the wind chill so I don’t plan to mess with the engine running today, but I have work tomorrow so I can update again then. I think I’m going to bring the timing back to 14 or so as I’m at about 16 right now and get very very slight pinging at heavy throttle going up this specific hill in 3rd gear. It’s a super steep hill by my apartment and if I’m in 3rd going about 30 I’m at around 2500rpm or so, and the engine labors so I think it’s a good ping test spot lol. I did go back to 87 octane which could be related, but I think I’m going to try to tune this motor for 87.
