Would you say that it was a quality piece though?

The B&M quarter stick shifters caught my eye but they’re over $400. Yikes

Looking for floor shifter suggestions. I’ve got a column shift 904 in my 1971 scamp. Would like to replace it with an aftermarket floor shifter. Car currently has a bench seat, and the shifter will need a provision for my linelock switch. What’s everyone using for floor shifters? Video for...

We will see, this bike wasn’t in good shape when i bought it. I have yet to ride it

lol I plan on getting rid of it and making my own exhaust

Messed around with the timing just a little bit. But, I’ve come to solidify my reasoning that it’s the intake air temperature which is causing the coolant temp to rise to high temps. As the engine runs and gets warmer and warmer the intake air charge does the same. I picked up a Harley about...

I feel the same, I put the car together over the winter when the ambient temperature was cold enough for me not to have to worry about it. I only put the car under stress for very short periods of time and only to get the tune dialed in. now that the temperature is heating up. I’m starting to...

UPDATE: Temps are heating up here in NC. Starting to see issues with keeping the IAT down. When I get some time I’ll be moving the blower intake to fresh air and I’ll need to fab an intercooler solution. I’ll more than likely remove the hood latch assembly so I can fit an intercooler behind the...

I played around with it a bit more. I adjusted the table to advance the timing starting around 1500rpm (think lower speed cruising like around town) while under minimal load. Highway cruising is now bumped up to about 40-42 degrees while intake pressure is -6.0psi. The car has responded very...

This would solve a lot of my issues

Very close to what I’ve got it set to now

My idle timing is 20 degrees

I’ve got an update: Took the car out to the local cruise in tonight. I made some adjustments to the portion of the timing table where the car cruises at: Headed to the cruise in: 55mph 2500rpm 29 degrees of timing Coolant temp reached 200 degrees and stayed within a few degrees of that...

I’ll see if I can get a buddy to ride with me and cruise the car so I can make adjustments on the fly and see how the car acts

Not yet. I haven’t had a chance to take the car out and mess with the timing table. Hoping to mess around with it later in the week. I’ll try and send an update when I do
