Alignment & Tuning

The B&B is nearing completion!!! I am at the point where it could probably use and alignment, and I am debating about having someone else sort out the ignition timing and carb tuning for me. Anyone have recomendations for either of these? I would like someone that can get me in and out fairly quickly, as I need to get this thing inspected, registered, insured and fully sorted out before June 15th or so. I want to display in a local car show and then pack it up for Spring Fling.

I am with you --- I am at the exact same point.

My wheel alignment was done by sight - I am sure it is waaaay off.
Also I am not sure if I have an occasional spark plug miss-fire, the computer needs some time to 'learn' the engine or it's just how the cam effects the way it runs.
In any case, I could sure use a suggestion of someone than can help.

I would think that if you have the alignment settings, that you should be able to tale it to any shop for an alignment. As to the engine, if it is modified, perhaps "Street Stuff" in Addision.

I have a Classic Roadster, and in the instruction manual there are specifcations for alignment that can be used by an alighnment shop. If there are no specs in the book call the kit manufacurer, they have them. As far as tuning the engine talk to Fred Marano, he has a shop in Lyons that he is happy with.
