  1. Opened my packet of corn chips at work... :wtf:
  2. "
  3. 18RG!!! DO IT!
  4. Basically, the distributor has a function known as vacuum advance. It's used to advance the timing of the engine between low to mid range load increasing low speed drive ability. It uses ported vacuum sourced from just above the throttle butterfly. The effect of the vac advance diminishes as engine speed increases as the low pressure zone in the carb moves from the throttle plate to the main venturi. This is where the mechanical advance of the distributor takes over.
  5. One hose that runs from the carb to the dizzy. It should be here...
  6. Just drive... Love it!
  7. Been researching vacuum advance, manifold and ported vacuum, timing, intake and exhaust intertia and momentum. A few changes in timing, jetting, and vacuum have been made. Compresion test today. 190 psi on all cylinders...
  8. eBay Ke20 clutch cable. I put a spring washer at the very top and have about 50% Pedal action. Seemed very long for a fresh cable.
  9. Fishing.... when there's no fish.
  10. If the extractors are the 4-1 type then yes they will fit. The tunnel may need to be cut back a bit where the selector comes through depending if the gearbox i from a ke55 or a ke70.
  11. Make sure it has oil and pray.
  12. Since installing the thermo fan, i've noticed engine running temps are down, while engine bay temps are up due to the fan operating full time. So to give my little weber some relief I developed this... Its a restrictor pipe from an Holden Astra's air box strategically placed where one of the horns used to reside. It looks a little like some type of sex toy...
  13. We still only get "sensible" autos here because our government is, and always has been, a bunch of cock washers.

    You wouldn't catch me leaving my rolla out on e street like that.... That is a unique looking rolla though.
  15. Just had a brain fart. The ACL Team was at Jamboree last year handing out gift bags. They have a new Race Series line out for more modern engines, otherwise their products are branded 'MonoTorque' for the Australian market. Still, I'm not sure if there doing pistons other than the race series.
  16. Its just a ʞ©$ɟed up world we live in. People learn very quickly through experience. Unfortunately not all survive it.
  17. That is a very respectable conversion. Very cool.
  18. Bummer. It would be good to see a whole isle of rollas there to representing the club.
  19. This will be my first car show. Although my door cards still haven't been done. I'm looking forward to this.
  20. I'm using them in my 5k. I have experienced no problems.
  21. AutoPro still supplies ACL if there is any available stock, otherwise they'll supply Nason pistons for around 180$.
  22. I'm using a 2in straight through system with an 18in resonator. Good sound not overly noisey.
  23. Hehe. That's cool. It floats my boat too.
