[QUOTE="Black Flash, post: 47318, member: 433"] Hello Bruce, I have yet to see the first heatshrink to wear through. I mean it will only get compressed or squashed lightly, so I really cannot see the heat shrink wear. But as I said it was just my opinion. Regarding Martyn answer. I am aware that this plastic falling off could create a very big problem, but so can a metal ear breaking of and getting munched in the timing gear. I will never forget finding the needle roller from the valve lifter next to the half time pinion in the timing chest, it send my pulse skyhigh! this could have easily been the most expensive needle roller money can buy. I believe that even ATD tuning can become a wonderful part of Vincenteering. you ask 20 people and get 25 opinions, but isn't this what it is all about. Regarding electronic ignitions. I have a 600 cc Terry Price twin plug topend kit on my Comet and the engine start and runs beautifully on a boyer system. I cannot say anything about power figures as it is not yet run in, due to German TÜV (MOT) reasons. The engine is timed at 28 ° full advance has great power and is a joy to start first kick everytime. Bernd [/QUOTE]
