Ha! I didn’t know it actually changed the timing advance curves. That would explain the difference in feel I experienced more than it having a “hotter spark” did.

Oops. That’s the link for the replacement module. This is the link to the HEI ignition system https://manafrelv.com/product/vacuum-advance-distributor-for-manafre-lightning-strike-hei-ignition-system/

Purists will disagree but the premise is upgrading your ignition system with more modern components creates a hotter/more reliable spark which in turn combusts fuel better which in turn makes your vehicle start and run better. Manafre sells one called Lightning Strike. I drove a 60 with this in...

Dude, cold starts suck. Gotta do that ignition upgrade. It’ll give you some extra oomph too.

I think your plan is a good one for a few reasons. for one it’s easier to remove the 3m tape for full repair than it would be to cut out a bad weld and do over for two you’ll probably get a better seal out of the tape. Especially without welding skills.

Actually I found some photos I had already taken.

Hey! The truck is in the shop at the moment. Doing an LS swap because hauling around 5 kids and all our gear was getting to be problematic. I’ll get some photos as soon as I get the truck back though

I've heard there's a guy next to the Blue Grouse who runs a shop/truck rental place who will let you use his garage/lift for a small monthly fee. I think it's called Pauls Auto Care?

Tor put a third row + seatbelts in mine. Pretty sure the seat is just a rear seat from a Jeep. I’ve got 5 kids and we pile everyone in all the time. The seat folds and tumbles forward when not in use and I can remove it easily when I want. I’ll get some more pics tomorrow if interested

She needs another adventure
