1940 v8 timing
Can the timing on the engine be tweaked, with the distributor on the car. It runs pretty good but seems to lack power. Can only get 30 mph in second gear and doesn’t like third gear at all.

I also found when I had the dizzy checked out, that the vacuum line going into it did not have a Farrell on the line. It just slides thru the fixing.

I checked the vacuum at the wiper port and have 15 inches of vacuum. The engine still bogs down on acceleration. Also will backfire thru the carb. If I choke the hell out of it, it will start pick...
