I could not get it to stay running with the carb that came with it. I have a JimC rebuild I put on it. Fired right up with no choke but I have a misfire at idle that's pretty bad. All of the plugs are firing. New. Newish Toyota plug...

Never had any boil issues. Started in Colorado when the weather was cool. Jason @Ozark cruiser says there is a filter up in the wheel well that can get clogged and toss this code.

You will get it eventually

I hate problems. The way i eliminate problems is to take off all old s*** and replace it with new s***. Monkeying with old s*** is not my thing. I have never messed with points either. Remove. Toss.

VintageTEQ sells them

Gross. All I know how to do is remove these things

Seeing this in tan after many many weeks of work is comforting. May Allah makes this project finish.

Cables sets still available!

To get the full pull out of the heads it's best to have a cam and bigger pistons but I ran one on my blue 60 on top of a stock 2F and it was great. More compression as he shaves them down a bit as well.

I got the exhaust back on. Fired it up and it won't idle and it's running super fat. I can give it 1/2 choke and it runs fine. I left it for the day as it was 7 pm but here are my thoughts. First off. It ran fine upon arrival. Second...

I fired it off with open headers to make sure it was oiling before I put the valve cover on.

Well @FJ60Cam saved my ass. Off the pic i Posted yesterday he saw with his eye that I had used an F head gasket and not a 2F. I have no idea where this F head gasket came from but I had a proper 2F one here and it's on. Luckily all I had done...

Thanks to @FJ60Cam for letting me pluck a Hi Po head out of your stash. I was able to hit the gym, my favorite restaurant Las Tortugas for a $50 lunch and grab the head drive home and stab it by 6:30. 💪 Pro Tip if you are putting a head on...

I'll at least make it until the raffle starts Maybe.

Nah, the shop floor is sloped.

Taxes paid

It's hard to compare apples to apples with 40s. Most I swap have some s*** combo of springs and shackles. I always measure before and after though. One thing I have noticed. So far none I've installed have any lean.

Better than stock is better than stock I always say. 💪

Nice work, Al. This review helps alot of people. A well sorted and slightly modernized 40 is a thing of beauty, it just takes some time, patience, a plan and some money to get there.

Pretty much the same letter I received. I'm very happy with the top, but the customs payment was a shock.

And the EGR tube has been cut and welded close- not pretty but will be OK with some "perfume" treatment. 1984 GCC is 17111-61010. 1984 US is 17111-61021 Thanks for the offer, Meshal. I put the 3F exhaust manifolds with 2F intake on the 40 when...
