    68 L88 in Driveline??

    Saw the ad in the driveline this month and the cost was $30,000 disassembled. I thought these cars sold for $100,000? low production.Is this a real L88? Anyone intrested in a combo purchase restoration? I recall there's a point thing between chapters, if you do a frame off?? Anyone seen/live by the location? Just something to think about. since some of the guys that mainly contribute have 68-72's. I have MANY!!! extra parts. Don't know if this post is appropriate for this discussion board. Sorry if is not.

      Re: ignition timing

      Jack, both "Motors" auto manual and the 1977 book "Corvettes Technically Speaking" (which seem to use the AMA filings as a source) call for 4 degrees, using a distributor curve of 32 degrees (Crankshaft) at 3600 RPM. Vacuum advance is 27 degrees (crank) at 15 inches of vacuum per the same reference.

        Is it the one advertised by Dennis Kazmierzak? If it is, he has some "soft" documentation on it (thats his terms). Email me if you need his address, etc.
