Re: mike test... is this thing on?

Gday Antus. Looks good. I don't see any change in the font size but the one you are using looks fine. I logged in earlier and thought my computer was doing strange things then realised it had a major upgrade.

Re: Charge temp spark adv subtration.

I would think that by logging the IAT would show if the problem was caused by high intake air temp. Looking into the bore on an engine that has suffered heaps of knock may be evident by piston and valve damage not the bore. In lots of cases the ring lands break and are not evident by visually inspec...

Re: 304 non roller into vt

I would think you might have to do a bit of VE tuning going from a roller cam to a flat tappet.

Re: $5D VN tune to 12P issues

Is your knock sensor turned on?
If you don't know go into esc params and check your settings.

Re: Holden 304 Banana Manifold

A work mate made up a flow bench and we tried using vacuum cleaners and they were hopless so we ended up with a huge industrial motor which did the job. I hope you can do it with vacuum cleaners.

Re: New RMS info for Modified Cars

I have the ADR's on CD up till abt 10 years ago and the testing is very difficult for anyone without a big investment in the equipment. I'm surprised to read in that doc they mention emission testing (Lambda testing) vaguely for cars from 1972. That was ADR26 and there were no dyno testing done then...

Re: New RMS info for Modified Cars

All cars that were produced after July 1976 had to pass the emission test for the year of production which was done on all cars from ADR27A on. From ...

New RMS info for Modified Cars

Looks like the RMS has decided to concentrate emission testing on cars made after 1997 so my question is do the older cars still have to meet the regs to get registered in NSW. My guess is no.
