Re: Pressure plate adjutant

So, why would Paul make all of the adjustment he did on the bench? Wouldn't it save time by just doing the adjustment one time when it is up with the flywheel?

Re: Distributor wiring

So, for example with Bobs chart in mind. What tests would you do if it were to read 10 ohms or 12 ohms? Where would you start?

Distributor wiring

In the latest Ford article it talked about eliminating the lower distributor plate.

Sounds good to me. Does anyone see a problem in doing this?

Re: engine compression levels.

52 is pretty good.

If you have a standard head the math would be:

4.2x14.7. About 60 lbs on a new engine.

Some say the formula should be 4.2x14.7+14.7.

If that didnt help then look to the...
