yep' it's white now. just a base coat right now. i'm still looking at it trying to decide what to air brush on it. yes i do the air brush thing. i've done a couple of my semi trucks in the past. oh ..clicking on pictures does make them bigger.
the changes i've made lately. the new evac system. no more oil blow's out the seals or breathers, but at speeds over 3000 rpm it starts to suck oil out the evack system into the exhaust. makes it smoke out the exhaust. still playing with that.you can see the big lines coming out of the breathers down to collecters on headers.
the big change is the blower ratio. the last video with it running was ok, but it seemed like it was strugling at idle. so i upped the timing to 22 degree advanced and 24 degree in the dizzy, total of 46 degree's. the stroker really liked that and the temperature droped down too. dont run near as hot! still strugling at idle though. like not enough air. the blower drive i got is 10% under driven. i flipped the pullies, that made it 10% overdriven. it came alive. idle's great and can blow the tire' up in smoke in drive at 60 mph. just have to keep the rev's down to keep it together. dont like that big boom.
just my wife and i saying hi from florida....the old trucker
After you fix the idle problem. Sounds like you and me have the same problems lol
Keeps you busy but lots of fun.
