80kv! Give me a break!
By spinnerbait42 - 12/30/2004 10:19:15 AM; IP 138.162.140.45
Hey guys, The 80kv thing is just the coil claim (& I wuz exaggerating alittle, gimme a break!). I've got the complete Accel 300+ ignition system along with their 8.5 wires and an electronic dist. They claim to have the "multi-spark" effect and "duration" the same as MSD claims. After the many opinions on my compression tests, I think I'll look around to see if I know anybody else w/a compression tester and use a different one to rule out a deffective gauge. I have, however, performed a manifold vacumm test, and *@ steady speeds*, I recorded nothing less than 13 psi. This, I think, rules out inaccurate cam timing. I reset my base timing to about 8 deg, and the wieghts maxed it out (3k rpm no load)to approx. 35 deg. The vac adv pulled an extra 20 deg @ idle and 10 deg above wieghted max (3k rpm no load.) As for my low end, after all the recent adjustments my low end was quite noticably improved!
This thread, so far...
