    Late VK's had Borg Warner diffs, and they are all 25 spline.
    The Borg Warner diffs fitted to the VL's have the pumpkin offset 30mm future across compared to VK's and the axle lengths are different to a VL 's .
    The VL Turbo cars and the 5.0 litre V8 cars have 28 splines , and all the others are 25 splines

    usually the vacuum is actually for low load and low rpm and as the load increases it will drop off how much advance as the mechanical kicks in instead.

    Guys you need to disable the vaccumm advance on the distributor when checking the base timing then reconnect the vaccum hose to distributor before driving
    5 litre Holden v8
    Base timing is set at
    8-10 degrees without vaccum line on distributor
    Then with vaccum line on it should go to 12-14 degrees timing

    Late VK's had Borg Warner 78 diffs (same as VL's) but with 25 spline..
    A simple upgrade is using VN 28 spline axles. The long VN axle can be shortened and resplined and then a drop in fit to the VK BW78.
    I've done this upgrade on my late 85 VK Calais.

    Hot start issues on Carby are usually due to heat transfer from the engine after it has been turned off, you can get insulator blocks to help with this.

    Having a bad Vac Advance would have definitely made it a bit of a pig to start. A thought however In my old cars that were made to run on Super I found a pretty good way to compensate for 91 and make them always run a whole lot better. I have fitted MSD boxes to stuff ranging from a Flathead Morris to my old 245 Valiant and always been happy with the results. The Valiant in particular I chased a poor idle and ignition miss for ages and never really managed to rectify it properly. I started with a points ignition and fully refreshed it from condesor to ballast resistor, no luck. Swapped over to a Chrysler electronic style it still happened, removed that and fitted a later model Holden ignition module it still ran a bit funny. Finally Fitted a Basic MSD Street fire ignition box and it idled smoothly for the first time since I had owned it. It also allowed me to retard the timing slightly to prevent pinking with no loss in power. For a high performance build I probably wouldn't use that particular unit maybe go for a 6a or something similar but it worked Flawlessly. I was also able to retain the standard dizzy cap for a stock appearance as well that you usually dont with a high energy system.

    Gilmer belt drive = oh, no. Bogan spec. Does NOTHING. FFS go back to vee belts or do a serpentine convo. Toothed belts are only good for MASSIVE drag engines. On street stuff, mostly it's a massive wank. Or should I say, a tiny wank for tiny organs. Just pointless bling. That ought to ruffle some peacock feathers. And looking at the sludge... the reluctor plate will give off varying dwell, as I'll bet the bushes on the shaft are flogged.
