Well, they're all back up to spec .... but - that's only after the new motor.
On a cold startup one morning, I broke a valve and it sucked into the
motor........ can you only imagine the lovely noises this made? :/

I didn't have any detonation problems. .. I could run the boost retard on
zero if I wanted for short periods of time, no problem. I always ran 92-93
b/c of the blower.

Also used a MSD-6BTM, usually had it on 1.
