Worked on setting the static timing on my U20 which has been off the road in 20+ years.

Attempted to get her running....but, failed.

Good news is that under the valve cover things don't look too bad.

Cool. I sold 558 to Pete Bucknor here in Calgary. Also Thunder Black with Red Interior. Sisters. Was yours a Canadian car?

Mine had the 150hp number plate...

^ those look sweet.

I filed the corner of my ITG filter down so it doesn't hit the clutch master. 5 minutes work, no money spent and peace of mind retained. Win!

Removed my supercharger to see that it has decided to eat itself.....

Time to price a new one. I guess it doesn't like 8lbs of boost wide open throttle going up hill for 1.5 miles.

So the ITG doesn't fit well right out of the box?

I spent some of the day mocking up the battery location under the parcel shelf and straightening body side moulding, de-dinging?
