True Classic
Here is the car as it sits now. Distance from the ground to the blue tape marks at the center of the fender arch is
24.25" front and 24.5" rear. For comparison my Bertone with Konis and cut stock springs is 22.5 front and 22.75 rear. Would like to hear how other folks with stock springs or even sport springs compare. Both my cars have 185/60/13 tires.
This is my current engine test set up. No tags so I really can't drive on the street but I do putter around the neighborhood. Yellow oil bottle is the gas tank (supply hose end just sitting next to it in the picture). Not really ready to have gas just sitting in the main gas tank. Gauge on the targa is my new AEM air/fuel meter. Will probably move to the cabin since I want some readings while I cruise the neighborhood. Targa location allowed me to set the idle mixture and discover the 115 main jet was too small and the 125 main is fine (again this is static testing). Orange tape on rear window is a reminder that I only have water in the cooling system. I always do this for reborn Fiats as dealing with any leaks or need to change parts in the cooling system means just dealing with water rather than coolant all over the floor. Obviously will need to change to proper coolant before freezing weather arrives.
