Thanks to all the high rollers placing their bets....

New belt and crank pulley are now on and tested.

Those who placed their chips on "slipped belt" win by a tooth.

I had to turn the crank 1 tooth clockwise to get the index lined up. I did this by wrapping the old belt around just the crank sprocket and pulling on the left. It moved quite nicely into TDC.

Don Foster's Rope Trick did a great job torquing the crank pulley bolt.

The car performs much better than before. Ignition timing was set at around 8 TDC, I reset to an honest 12 BTDC and the motor seems to be running very nicely.

Thanks to all for the help-
Dylan
