Dyno Test and points 140-160

I tuned the engine to specs and drove yesterday evening and to work this morning. Running like a "Bat out of the inner portions of the earth"

I believe the excess oil caused the points to slip or was causing the cam contact to swell up. Never happened to me before.

Will work on the breakerless points soon, after I switch out shocks on my truck.

It is good to see a lot of 140 series owners on line these days, especially the new folks.

Thanks
Joel
