OK, everyone put on their cap key and get ready to yell at me... 
As some of you know I've spent the last year sorting through some issues related to my Sy sitting for so long since the frame off resto it went through.
Well, I've taken this week off from work and have decided to do some minor things to the Sy (new IC to turbo hose, new spindle bearings, fix the A/C, etc.). I went for a few DM runs this morning, came back and saw some knock retard....
OK, get ready to yell at me.... I haven't checked the timing on the Sy since I bought it!!!!!
So, I get out the light, disconnect the wire, go up front to connect the light, and say to my self...."What the ))(*&&^%!!!" There's no friggin timing pointer!
I dig out the pics from the resto, find this one....
Notice that shiny timing chain cover that DOESN'T have a pointer on it?? :rant:
And now, feeling really stupid, I'm getting ready to order a timing pointer... looks like I need a 6 3/8 (6.375") ....Does anyone have any recs on a good one???
