I gave it a good workout today. It now has 100 miles on it so I guess I didn't forget any bolts or anything.
I tried to set the total timing at 34 degrees but it pinged. Dropped back to 32 and still has a very slight ping, more noticable once engine is fully hot. Probably just the lousy gas they sell today. Next time I will back it down another 2 degrees and try again.
I noticed it still smokes a bit, nothing heavy, just a light waft that passed me by when I would come to a red light. I guess that's normal until the rings seat in. When is that by the way? :? Which leads me to something I thought of while out driving. Why doesn't a new car smoke until their rings seat?
The car got alot of thumbs ups today. Looked real sharp after being washed.
