Since on wells, the motors ran a constant speed, we'd tune them at night and use the exhaust as a guide. With the stub pipes on each head, blue flame would be at the pipe tips, so we could tune each distributor on each side of the motor, by tuning in each distributor to max blue flame.

BillT: If a muffler had blown off at the header, and clattered around under-neath, you may have had a heart attack. LOL------Love the ol' 12s and stories.
