:P what would cause a head gaskit to fail after only 5000km??????? the torque was right , head was skimmed, the block was clean. what went wrong? :) do you think i need to get the head re skimmed? could my bolts of strieched, or does the car just hate me.

i was going to wait till i get the cam ground, i was looking at the points and even with the cap removed there was sparks jumping the points, is that normal? :P what is making that happen?

8 dbtc, do you think it needs to be more? :lmao:

that's a good idea, but i've tryed that and the Manifold vacuum is so great that the advance maxes out on idle and it wants to ping like a moefoe. I was thinking about electronic points and locking off the vacuum all together in a effort to over come this. :P

whats a xmas tree?? sorry i'm not good with all the car lingo. but the carby is a 40 mm dcoe side draft webber on a redline intake manifold so my hubby says :P
-
took all the vaccumm stuff of because the webber didn't support it. i do know that the webber can be modified by drilling into one of the vaccumm chambers but none of the carby people in perth will touch it with a 30' pole. lol :P not enought money in it they say "jerks"

I got my corolla for my 21st off my husband 4 years ago. we recently re-conditioned a 4kc engine and are putting webbers onto it, it has a 3k distributor because we have removed all of the vaccumm advanced stuff, we also have straight through extractors, now my car sounds like a VW. and we have never been able to set the timing right it has to be advanced. please help :P
