fuel system hangs a bit low

[Grr]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, nice. Probably one of the only fast cars around that actually runs and drives at the moment, good job

[Parker]

this thing hates life below 1200rpm... i mean if the fan kicks on it falls on its face.... not as streetable as i would like it to be.... im having an issue with the brakes, everytime i try to stall the brake peadle goes to the floor and i loose all brakes i let off of the throttle it comes back up, i put a check valve, the work better, but i think i need a vacuum canister, if that dosent help ill just go full manual brakes.... other than that it drives great for having shitty bald tires on snow/ice.

Not sure if you did this or not....lock the distributor at full advance. This will help greatly with the idle and vacuum.

If you have a problem with it starting you can always put in a start retard or a ignition interuptor(sp)....I have done this to a number of cars and never had a negative side effect.

[Parker]

actually we were having trouble starting it , the ignition box was set for a 20 degree retard below 800 rpm, i turned that off and she fires up right away and after she warms up a bit idles like it did on they dyno...
