Thanks Taily, very much appreciated! Just out of curiosity will it struggle to idle/run properly without this mod to the ignition? It was quite rushed and everything only roughed in ( and I'm positive I need a new carby ) but we just couldn't get the timing right. May explain why!
Once it's black and shiny and in my garage I'll do that mod and see what a difference it makes. Can't wait to get it back!

The ps unit came of the WB 308 block in the donor ute so unless there is a difference in the blue block I can't see why it doesn't line up. Again this was rushed but could only go in one way as far as I could see. Longer spacers will fix it I guess but hopefully I'm missing something!

Glad the EL shroud will fit as I just ordered one hehe! Good mate of mine has rebuilt a '55 Chev from a dump to show qual and did all his own wiring so I know he will handle this bit. He's first to admit though he knows nothing specific about this era Holden so any info I can acquire will be valuable!

I'd love to post some photos but I only have a phone! I'll try and see how I go!

Thanks again Taily!!
