Don't you love it when everything is working right

I laughed before when someone said "do you know why they started making wood dashes on the BJ8?" So there is something to knock on when everything is working right.

I bought a uni-syn and balanced them perfectly and adjusted the mixture on the SU carbs where everything is just spot on. The car runs like an absolute champ now. Starts first click, no stumble/flutter, sounds great and pulls really strong.

Now that they're "spot on", you might consider putting a drop of green Locktite on each of those adjustment screws so they stay in place. It has worked for me.
