Wink Hot idle much better..........update

Got my valves adjusted...the intakes were too tight. Timing was too retarded. Raised fuel pressure to 36psi. Runs real strong now (especially considering the 17's it's pushing) would easily be a 15" fuch's tire roaster!! Eats gas much better (bad). Doesn't seem to go above 255-260 oil temp. Removed rubber from flexi-dam. Seems to cool more quickly now. I need to check thermostat assy adjustment still. I also need to check ditributor. One of the only things I didn't replace or rebuild.

Does anyone know who rebuilds these to like new condition?

John Larson on Rennlist will rebuild them for something like $100. You might also want to consider a very cheap route - go to your local Checker and get a rebuilt. The rebuilder is A1 Cardone, and I read some postings that indicated good results with dizzy's built by them - your results may vary. But the price is sure right - $70 from my local Checker with $1 core charge! Hard to go wrong, especially since you can keep returning them to Checker until you get one that you're satisfied with.
