I wish I had money too . I actually sold an 89 convertable i had and spent the difference, which was 3 grand. not bad for everything i wanted in a motor (almost everything)! YOur right though, I dont know a damn thing about building or working on motors, thats why im here

Anyways I rechecked my timing for the heck of it and it seemed to be around 18, I must have thought 16. My question is, where do you look exactly when reading the timing? I know there is an arrow there, but the arrow is really wide, and the lines for timing are very skinny, how do you know exactly what your timing is? Thanks
