Ok. Well, I am not going to pull farggin teeth to get answers to questions that have been asked twelveteen times now, so to hell with it.
I thought us cars all came with automatics as standard and manuals were an option !

A guy gets on hers from another Country, and this is what he gets! Wow!
Patience Rusty. There's a language , jargon and expertise barrier here. The guy is half way around the world also. When it's 11 pm. your time the guy is still asleep. (4 am. Wednesday)
It's a tourqflight 904 , auto happy now
Play nice guys. I can close the thread.
Edelbrock performer plus with lifters , will my standard valve springs be ok .
Also I just bought brand new performer inlet and four barrel carb true roller timing set and some used exhaust headers plus a new pro flow air filter.
I gathered the bits together and this is it:
904, stock low C.R., stock 318 heads, unknown rear gear ratio.
Now we're gettin' somewhere, slowly....but we're moving. Without looking up the specs, in my opinion that's too much cam for the combo. It'll sound nice but you'll be eaten alive by your wife on her bicycle.
Yes the power steering gearbox is larger than the aluminum manual box, advantage you.
It doesnt really matter where the rotor is pointing, so long as its under the tower of whatever wire is going to the cylinder that you have indexed to TDC compression.
Now it customary to have the rotor pointing to the front intake manifold bolt, on the drivers side,because that locates the #1 plugwire tower(if so marked) in the proper orientation, and the vacuum advance can will also then be positioned in a way that makes timing changes easy. But like I said you can put it anywhere you want.
Vin code says 273 This evening I lined up the timing cogs 6 top 12 bottom with front drivers piston at tdc but the rotor arm is at number three piston I think , anyway I removed the cam and the heads look like they have been skimed I noticed silver steel underside . Question. The rubbers inside the springs are nice condition but some are up some are down is normal ? ( I have not removed the heads) and stil not checked diff ratio the front is on axle stands . Question 2 I offered the old iron inlet up to a spare engine a old friend gave me (318) but the bolts are straight up type When did they change ? Also I still ain't checked the engine code. Fore a date yet sorry krazy cuda .
