Don, thanks for coming out on the limb here. I just got back from a
weekend trip with the wagon fully loaded. my wife and our 6 yr. old
daughter and the ridiculous
amount of stuff we load up the wagon with for the trip. now, not having
a timing tape on the dampner I don't now for sure what my setting
really was and after the Mods
what it's soposed to be? so as Joe suggested, I turned it back to 10
degrees for the trip and it ran great ! the old 62 wagon pulled just
fine up and over the highway hills
and passes with no ping and the feel of some definite restored power.
That being said, I am wondering what or why the 318 needs a timing
chain if it has to have 17 degrees to run decent with a stock cam.
although my cam is also a regrind, the specs of the build on the link
below, has my cam specs and some other info if you
could be so gracious to make a comment as anything would be a help, for
I'm out here on the limb with not much but a somewhat better running
Poly.
thanks Schuyler
