1972 Dodge Colt

Finally got out to test, weather has been a little unpredictable lately.

Good news:
Front brakes are great, did the first real burnout tonight.
Trans leak is fixed, no more drip.
Head gasket is fixed, no leaks.
Electronic ignition dist. seems to work real well.
Fuel pressure was rock solid at 3 PSI.

Not much news:
Timing change hasn't seemed to make much difference.
Moving cam back a few degrees didn't seem to effect performance.
Can't really tell if the clutch tamer is doing what it's supposed to do.

Bad news:
The great Weber experiment is over for the time being.
It coughed on clutch dump and fell on it's face.
Then picked up and went on about it's business.
Colt wasn't any faster today.


And not sure if bad or good, but I did get my first Red light!
Had not left early in any either earlier pass.

I am going to send my 650 to a carb shop and see what a pro can do with it.
Not sure if I am going to mount the Skunk Works manifold or the Weiand.
