yes, its a very good example of that 87hilux, i definately learned the importance of that on this build, but thank you very much to conga!!!! i did timed the CPS and it fired right up! idk if something got messed up a little tho, will not rev above 2000 RPM and heats up very very fast, i do have a few vacuum leaks tho that im still figuring out, but am getting the part to fix the vacuum leaks ASAP. any ideas of why it won't rev above 2000? also when i put in gear and let off clutch it has almost no power, wont climb rpm's at all, does some kind of backfire??? thinking maybe timing is too far advanced or something??? haven't had a chance to put a light on it yet, will do tomorrow. but she purrs like a kitten when idling, lol.
