NGK BP6HS plugs

Why?!?

You need to fit a fresh set of BP7HS & start over.

I'm limited by my earlier purchase of a 123ignition.

What the go with it? I assume the advance is all electronic, so can 123 reprogram the thing to be useful? If not, then it's an expensive hunk of junk. Find a regular distributor & get someone to recurve it.

Pump gas (91) with Outlaw (ferosene) octane boost

Is 91 the best pump gas you can get? I don't know, because Australia uses a different, inferior, test method.

integral iron manifold with large balance tube, no secondary butterflies.

That's the best one, I like it better the aluminium manifold. The big balance tube is a help I think.
