Re: No spark at plugs
How decent is the spark from the king-lead? You say you have 12v and a non ballast (12v) coil - which means your coil is correct? Even if you have a ballast coil, you can try hard-jumping 12v direct to the coil+ to eliminate all wiring and the 12v boost wire from the starter (or a relay) - dont leav...

Re: Ported plenum adjustments
Even as someone who sells 72mm plenums, I would have to ask why you think you need a 72mm plenum?

Re: Ported plenum adjustments
(I make the 72mm plenums) As described above, you need to centralise the throttle plate inside the bore.

Has phpbb evolved from how it used to be, where the minute you made any customisations your BB effectively became an unpatchable and therefore unsupportable nightmare? I lost interest in mine after doing all the customisations and then not being able to patch it - well, not without re-doing all the ...
