    Okay, dug out some notes on the tune and an air cleaner option The 123 curve and the jetting are self explanatory The air cleaner is an adapter used by off road guys for big air cleaners It just an option that works The adapter is made by LCE I believe

    While I don't have the specific details at hand I can say I had an identical build and the 123 tune was basically the Tii curve with vacumn advance in the mid range The 38/38 needed to be jetted down from stock. It's also very concerning that your timing mark is jumping around. This seems like a timing issue ,perhaps starting with the cam timing

    I have Square tail lights and lenses How nice do you want them ? if you only need lenses and want them perfect, you can find new repos from most pats dealers like AZ autohaus

    Put the Tii cure in it Search here if you don’t have it. Then add a little vacuum You can program two curves I believe so take it for a drive and compare your curves by the old fashioned Butt Dyno method with a little testing you may not need a dyno shop Someone may have a program to suggest to get you started

    I think if you put the Tii curve in and add a little vacuum in the low mid range it’s a good starting point If the Bluetooth is like the usb version you can program two curves and switch from one to another and see what happens You’ll be able to tell by the old fashioned butt dyno if you’re improving it should be adequate mate

    "Those Tii owners drive at wot all the time anyway". Good point Makes vacuum advance irrelevant

    I only made the the connections for an early car As acquired it was set up for a square tail car mounting to the bumper brackets The original work was pretty good I have no idea who built it or its history

    PS from looking at the table for the switchable curves I'd say none are the best for a Tii with todays fuels. And the BMW dyno work is now about 50 years old. The electronic ignition of a 123 tune compared to the original Tii mechanical devise makes the 123 tune so superior When you run a timing light the mark is steady and doesn't move around like a mechanical device
  14. rstclark
    Oh didn't notice you said switchable Only have familiarity with programable with which you can put in the Tii curve and add a little vacuum map. Actually you can program two different curves and control which curve you use by a toggle switch

    I glued a toothpick on one once. Even painted the tip red . Okay maybe touch getto, but it worked fine

    By all means go to a 123 tune with vacuum advance. Unless you are only drag racing with a wide open throttle and no vacuum, there is a place and good reason for vacuum advance The car will be more drivable A lean mixture (cruise) takes longer to burn so you need to light the match a little earlier. This is where the vacuum advance comes into play. When you do step on it the engine is already ready to respond rather than waiting for rpm and old fashioned mechanical advance to kick in Tap a vacuum port behind the throttle plate . Do it on the underside of the plenum if you don't want it seen

    Have one with mounts for roundies or square tails in San Diego I've used it and it works fine PM me if you're interested It disassembles into smaller transportable pieces

    You the man !
  19. rstclark
    By all means replace them You will certainly see an improvement Sound like it will be the last replacement in your life time Do it now !

    If you know exactly what you want call Top End Performance and get a custom regrind ( better old German Steel ) Go direct and possibly cut out the middle man No Knock but just a guess on my part because IE doesn't grind cams they just sell them

    I was going to say the same thing about a 123 tune distributor They are a little pricey but in actuality they are one of the best dollar for dollar improvements you can make to an M-10 People say it just woke my car up !!! and I agree that was my observation too. As fate would have I happen to have a usb version just rebuild by 123 Tune that I will part with for $350 shipped If you tell me your engine build I will install a best guess program for you PM me if you're interested

    Andy I always enjoy your comments You're now the" king of grease "

    The reality in San Diego is that plating shops send your parts to Tijuana Mexico Recently had my bumpers repaired and plated and they turned out very nice

    Maybe the photo is just as it hangs when you took the picture and you have had it "square". I would pull the tranny back out and be sure the pilot bearing fits nicely on the front of the shaft If So , Lube the pilot bearing and go back to pushing and shoving until it goes "clunk" You can try pulling it in by the bolts but it has to "clunk" to be right You'll know when it happens Best regards
