I saw this car in action over the past weekend at Island, and like I told the original poster, he has 3 major things (IMO) to look at:

1.TIMING is WAY OFF. I mean, not a little, but the CAS was completly turned to the left (so much as there was no more adjustment left with the cas) This would explain a serious lack of power...I'd be willing to bet nearly 50 hp would be gained by readjusting it.

2. The valve cover should (again, IMO) be connected to a vacuum source in order to work properly. At a minimum he should be running a catch can, or directly back into an intake.

3. Fix the fuel leeak at the gauge...having a small fuel misting/seapage in the engine bay like that is not good at all.


I can't attest to the D Jetro and it's values at all (as that stuff is complete jibberish to me...I couldn't tell you good from bad in it), but the car (from my perspective) didn't idle to bad, and didn't in herently smoke. I didn't get a chance to hear the car down the track for audible misfire or problems though :/

I still think the main thing is attributed to the timing being completly off....
