Now all I need to do is wait until I can afford something to haul. I'm pretty thoroughly tapped out after this crazy build. It's nice being done with it. It was all-consuming for the last three months. I've got more I want to do to it, but nothing is a rush. I need to get it lined up, I need to put a curve kit in the dizzy to try to get the mechanical advance up. It's currently only adding 16°, and that could explain my really poor fuel economy. Instead of doing an HEI conversion, I'm going to try a Pertronix II kit I picked up cheap for Black Friday.
Nope, I did not think to do that. I did figure the gear ratio from the tire size, and what I'm turning at what speed (2950 @ 70 mph). With the ratios available for a 14-bolt Corporate axle, I figure I have to have 4.10 gears.
