JR: Great minds think alike :=) I did the same thing with my current car, the 66. I plan to tighten it once I've got all the kinks out of both the fuel and ignition systems, but it's a real pain to work that bolt tight and loose to get the perfect timing that gives the best performance without pinging. Especially since performance changes every time I fix something else (generally letting me retard base timing a bit more).
I want to take the left carb off, clean it and put all new gaskets on, maybe put the Ignitor on if I have time.
My car is running around 75% better than before, and 100% better since I got it.
More good news is that a bad oil leak (leaving a puddle in my garage if she sits for a couple of days) appeared to be mostly due to loose oil pan bolts. Once I tightened them the leak seems to have been fixed.
I think my next task will be to fix the gas leak where the tank connects to the filler. I get gas dripping every time I fill the tank or jack the car up on passengers side.
