We got the brakes bled and everthing back on the car and buttoned up. The brake fluid really needed changing.....it looked like jet black motor
oil!. We fired up the car and checked for any
oil and gas leaks but none were found. We allowed the engine
oil and water temp to reach operating temperature and then we checked the timing. What we found was that the timing did not fully advance until about 3500-3700rpm. The distributor cap was checked and it was found to have two of the heavy silver springs. We changed one of the springs to a lighter tension spring allowing full advance in about 3000rpm. We did not make any timing adjustments as the timing was previously set when the car was dyno tuned leading to the low numbers which sent me down this path. We plan on taking the car out for a test ride tomorrow to see if any improvements is seen. I'm still not ruling out a cam change and leak down test but the car needed some general mainteance and I wanted to eliminate a few things off the list. Big thanks to PMAN1961 for all the help and teaching me the ropes on these cars!
