- in this video I describe the process that I use to set the timing for the first start and then break in a flat tappet camshaft. I also start Wills engine with the mufflers removed.

I really like your thoroughness in making the book up for the customer with all of the important information on the build.
thanks Pockets. AG
I absolutely agree. Documentation is valuable for repairs or upgrades in the future.

Yes I agree, would also be helpful if the head flow numbers were included. That info would be especially helpful for a camshaft upgrade.😎👍
good point, I did make a video about the head flow. How about a series of videos for documentation. AG

That would be great, the Wallace Racing websight has downloadable spec sheets to direct your audience where to get one.😎👍
A lovely sounding camshaft. I could listen to that for 20 minutes daily.
Me too! Thanks MrX. AG
Me too! So excited that in the spring that will be the case! 🎉🎉🎉🤩
Music to my ears. Sounds great without mufflers!
Thanks Shanman. AG
My, that engines sounds very crisp right off of idle!
Hey AG, if you get the Musclecar Plus mini magazine at your local auto parts store, this months is their last issue. The Anniversary Gold 63 Impala on the cover is definitely worth checking out!
Thanks alleyoop. I will check it out. AG
Can’t wait to see this engine on the Dino🙂
Thanks David, watch for it next week.AG
AG, when you pick the cam did you use the 128 method?
The 128 formula was used to determine LSA.
I wish the microphone could be on you instead of the camera. With my volume on high, its hard to hear you speak unless the camera gets closer to you for a close up.. when the camera is close up, the echo almost disappears.
I know it probably isn't easy or cheap to fix...... just flopping' my lips.
It would be a substantial improvement and might help gaining new subscribers...... which I see is growing. 👍
Thanks Randy, we noticed it too and trying to figure out why. I do have a microphone on if you look closely.
We do a soundcheck before the video and it sounds ok until we publish it. Thanks for your comment. We will work on getting better. AG
Alan, could you explain on another video about your use of the carb hat?
Sure Erik, i will do that. Thanks for watching..AG
Go to your GM dealer and get some GM dist. hold down clamps. That chrome junk will not work.
AG, when you first started it sound like it had too much timing in it or starter was dragging or battery was low?
Thanks Leonard. The battery was just getting low. AG
I know this is only an estimate but if an engine has 9.6 to 1 static compression ratio and it has a cam with a 230 @.50 intake duration what would you expect the dynamic compression to be.? Or the cranking pressure to be.?
Best guess with limited information, about 150PSI. AG
Maybe 150-160PSI
How's it running with the plastic cover on top of the carburetor
Thanks Jim. The cover has a mesh on part of it to let enough air in. It is an Allstar piece. I will have to demo it in a future video. AG
It sounds like you could take 3 or 4 degrees out of it.
Thanks for noticing David. Timing was ok, the battery just getting low. AG
