This is probaly a set of questions that Jac Mac could answer off his head.
I am mid way between houses waiting to build my workshop so everything is packed away.
I have a 3.5ltr Rover running 4 x 40mm twin choke Del Orto`s with a medium cam. Now that I have started to run it full throttle using 6000rpm, its running hotter than I would like. I have noticed that all my hot air is not leaving the car so can provide more pressure / flow from the front which may assist that. What I can not check is what the distributor is set up to ( info in storage), Its the standard set up for the Buick MSD as supplied.
Question..
Will the amount of advance at higher rpm effect the top end heat production.
What sort of numbers should it be for that max rpm.
The motor runs and pulls well with no obvious objections and I feel is on the rich side.
Getting the air out of the back of the car will hopefully be sorted with more input.
Any comments please.
