Yes, but there is more coming, mate. At least that's my plan. I have had to chase down a slight but irritating oil leak in the cam gear cover however so nothing is going on until I sort that problem. And in line with that work I'm also moving the radiator ~3/4" higher (new holes/slots) because in changing to an electric fan I've decided it is wise to add a wee bit more room between that fan and the water pump pulley. Plus there are a couple more things going on in life now, so this may seem to stall a bit.

As soon as possible I am going to be installing a wideband air/fuel gauge. That involves some exhaust pipe work, sorting out the wiring and I must also buy the sensor. I bought the gauge (a new and high quality unit) from a friend who never got to use it because the sensor got damaged. I've decided having more realistic data about how the Rochester (or any carburetor) performs on the 235 is the intelligent next step and would be good information to have here. At least I will say with that it should be easy to see and catalog what difference altering some of these variables makes. From what I've read so far, it is clear I have to study the whole A/F stuff in greater depth. I'm hoping Jerry and Jon can help with that.
