Well.....after a fashion anyway. :rolleyes:

It has some minor issues, the carb leaks at the rear of the feed tube (o-ring), and the power steering high pressure hose leaks (a victim of being tied up out of the way), and I'm gonna have to move the distributor one tooth ccw. All in all, not a big deal.

It has a real nice rumble to it, at idle (I'm not set up to record sound, so don't ask), and as soon as I fix the minor bugs, I'll take it on a test drive and give a report on the cam, and it being advanced 2 degrees from stock.

For those that don't know, the setup is a Summit cam (SUM-K8600, with the Summit roller timing set, advanced 2 degrees from stock), the carb is a holley 1849, 550 cfm, with vacuum secondaries, that needs a light rebuild. At present, the WT has a stock exhaust, but that will change soon.

Congrats! Keep us updated on what advancing the cam has done for you.
