I am getting frustrated with the tuning of my upgraded engine. I finally got the carbs syncronized and she idles better but I still get this darn occasional hiccup at speed where for a millisecond the darn thing just seems to shut down, like an extra beat of your heart (that's PVCs for you young'ens that are still in perfect health). This has got be be a timing issue. I am sure that had I set up the cam even one notch off that it wouldn't run as well as it does. She kicks b**t but still not perfect. Back to the drawing board. Or something more drastic as illustrated below.

BTW -- If you're going to blank out your license plate (a good idea) better also do the reflection in the bumper -- otherwise some idiot (like me) will do a rotate and flip just to see if he can read it (I could).

I've often wondered why people hide there license plate number in photos posted on the internet. How exactly would this information be used? Anyone driving behind me can easily read and record mine anytime they wish.

Am I just naive? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Just because you are paranoid, doesn't mean someone isn't after you...
