Chevy Big Block Distributor Swap - Droppin' Spark - CHP Step By Step
|
Joe Rubio is no rookie when it comes to working on his favorite El Camino. He frequently wrenches on it at his auto body shop, which is also where our Project Brutus is getting all its bodywork done. After popping the hood on the '80 El Camino we needed to land the engine at top dead center (TDC). Since the big-block is in the engine bay, all we had to do was bump the ignition with the key until the timing pointer marks matched up with the front balancer. To double-check, we also pulled the No. 1 spark plug and plugged the hole with a finger. As the motor comes to TDC, the compression will push your finger out. View Related Article
