That is the same watch I have worn since all of you have known me. I have had it for twenty years.

That's good cause it will give you quicker steering response due to less rotational mass.
I figured out part of my TWS issues on why the car was way down on power... The SPOUT connector was unplugged and the car never advanced past it's base timing on 10-deg BTDC.
Oops...
Also, ran a leakdown and found the heads leaking past either valve guides, or valve seats. 3 cylinders had more than 8% leakdown. One of those had 20%...
Bought a new set of AFR 165's and got them on the car today. Seems to idle/rev fine. No smoking like had at TWS. Hopefully that issue is resolved.
However, transmission is leaking from the front seal, so that will need to come back out and the diff cover needs to be resealed as well.
I guess it will give me the ability to reshim the 'ole Trak-Lok.
I'll dyno at some point either this month or between X-mas and new years and hit Cresson for a shake down prior to Houston.
