Okay I am now prepared to officially celebrate. I wanted to wait a couple weeks to see if the car was actually gonna behave or if this was just another ploy by the car to fool me.
For those not following my exploits I ended up yanking a poorly installed 009 and putting in a new SVDA. For future reference if you have checked and double checked everything and everything looks good but your car still runs like crap, put the engine at TDC #1 and pop the dizzy cap. Look to see if the rotor points to plug wire #1 or somewhere in between. If it’s somewhere in between then that might be the problem.
[mythbusters] Well, there’s your problem. [/mythbusters]
I will try to get some pics of the Hula girl and mount. I was thinking for the video footage I would wait until The No coast meeting in Oklahoma. Otherwise it would just be me driving around town…(Yawn)
I want to thank all you guys for talking rationally to a psychotic madman bent on Baja destruction and bringing me back from the edge.

I noticed when it is close to zero the carb and intake frost up after driving three miles. This is after letting the car warm up for almost 25 minutes.
I have a used Tri-mill exhaust on its way with the ports for the heat risers. It has the “dual inverted V” muffler set-up. Hopefully this will help.
It was 17 degrees this AM and the car ran WAY better.
