Tech Torque Pre 1973 / Re: Distributor for a 302W stroked 347

« Last post by trentsiddharta on Today at 05:24:34 pm »

Thanks Lisandrowaelchi, and everyone.

I ended up getting an MSD ready to run for a 302 with suitable steel gear. Lots of trouble initially getting the timing right and it ran terribly until I changed mechanics and a day later it was perfect. Runs like an absolute legend now.

After the new MSD went in and it was setup poorly, it was a combination of retarded timing, carby float incorrect, carb mix out and missing a choke that caused issues. Corrected these and added an auto / electric choke and its great.

It's not a 351w distributor—that's the wrong one. Although expensive, the MSD 302w ready-to-run distributor is the best option. Just make sure it has the correct bottom gear for the roller cam.

Try calling your local PPG rep and see if they have a quality shop they can recommend.

Of these guys.

Tech Torque Pre 1973 / trimmers/painters Brisbane northside

« Last post by Herman1 on May 12, 2024, 03:27:49 pm »

Hi All,
I have been trying to get someone to paint and sort my interior parts for well over 12 months.
I thought I had it sorted several time but have been let down.
Does anyone know of someone that can paint the interior hard plastics and metal trim (1970 Convertible).
The colour is medium blue (which is metallic).
The seats have all been recovered (Annvid at Capalaba) and I have new door cards.
Does anyone in the Brisbane area know of anyone that can colour match and use plasticizers?
Thanks in advance

Tech Torque Post 2015 / Re: Battery replacement

Apparently not.  Just fit a new battery and the BMS should take it from there.  Can always take it to battery world or similar and get them to supply/ fit test.
