Reply to "The Mice Strike, AGAIN!"

This is funny! Happened to me, too. Don't feel too bad Gordon, it happens.

Some of you remember me resurrecting Max Zimmer's widebody Speedster from its wheels-in-the-air-on-jackstands place of shame in the back corner of the garage. Once we got the firing order correct, we rebuilt the carbs, applied my linkage heim-joint fix(not patent-pending) and then synchronized. He said it never ran better. It had a ton of spunk for a 2109(76x94) with twin Weber 40 IDF.

So, what was the source of the firing order problem? It seems our friend Rocky Cimbrec did it to us, reversed 3-4 at the cap. He'd looked at it and was there once when I was scratching my head under Max's rear decklid. I'd LOVE to think it was accidental, but we'll never know! He was quite a kidder, that guy! I miss him.
