Re: Firestone tires Too Big?
Excellent news. Thank you.
I’ll post a pic tomorrow when I get them installed.
I paid a pretty penny to get these wheels here and I was panicking after reading that they may not fit.

Re: Engine Misfire Knock
I removed the distributor and it has a one piece shaft.
If you move the shaft up and down, there is over an 1/8 of shaft endplay.
