I built an engine for a guy in our club
good guy means well just not that bright
410 chevy small block aluminum heads t ram (he wanted)
he has a problem and instead of figuring out whats up he throws parts at it and changes no less then 3 items at a time , Distributor takes a dump he changes coil Msd box distributor etc...
so he has a bobble at cruise speed
reads and asks all the "Car show" people
he changes jets, power valves and timing ,because thats what they said to do takes it for a cruise 50 miles from home on the thruway and it dies 60 pounds of compression on all (had 185 before)
he stops this morning and tells me he pulled the front of the engine apart (instead of figuring out whats wrong) but found nothing
this car was running 7.60's in the 1/8 when I got done with not realy any tune up in it but he has to touch everything all the time.
WHY CAN PEOPLE NOT LEAVE THERE HANDS OFF WHEN IT IS RIGHT?
oh my guess with out looking at it is he leaned it out on the thruway but we will see when I get there to look
