Looks a great day out! Glad the weather held, it’s been disastrous up here.

Working on the movie now. Reputations will be left in tatters.
Oh dear god! Really not looking forward to this years movie
It was a great day out though and really good seeing all of you both old and new

after an epic 350 mile round trip finally back home, car tucked up and homework (almost) done!!! Great to meet everyone again, and get to know each other and our quirky cars a bit more. Thanks for organising it Neil and Danny, looking forward to the next meet (and hopefully putting to practice some of the engine tunning tips I received!)
Cheers
Ben (and Ella!)

Here is a very good article by Jack Staggs (a master from the states)
http://www.356carburetorrescue.com/jackstaggs.html
The only bit I don't do if the bit where he talks about removing the ignition leads from the distributor cap to see which affect the rpms the most/least. I tried this but just succeeded in giving myself an electric shock.
Here is the flow tool I mentioned
https://www.amazon.co.uk/ste-BK-Synchro ... B00ADITC0I
You also need a timing gun
https://www.ebay.co.uk/b/Vehicle-Timing ... bn_1631545
I prefer to buy one without an advance feature and mark the adv on the pulley wheel
Also a rpm/dwell tool like this but one from the UK

A wonderful day out and great to see everyone again and to meet some new faces!
Fantastic photos Danny and Jeremy. I am slightly nervous that I said something stupid when Jeremy was filiming!
Thank you very much for organising this again Neil & Danny. Hope to see you all again soon.

Fantastic pics, thanks for sharing. Looks like a really nice little gathering - can I join you next year if I bring a picture of my (in piles of parts) 912e?

Why not drive out and meet us at the end/beginning or maybe we can find a space in somebody's car?
