Great Jeff thanks i get my F54 on monday and that was one of my concerns another is the timeing how do you go about that does any one know the specs.

Pull the Valve cover and rotate the engine to TDC compression stroke one #1 cylinder. Both cam lobes should be pointing up.

Remove the dizzy cap and note the location of the rotor. it should be almost (2 ~ 16 degrees) to the #1 spark wire post on the dizzy cap.

If this checks out your ignition timing isn't the problem.

The problem was stuck rings!! A fresh hone - New rings.

Compression is 182 - 185 psi across all 6!! Fired up on first stroke!

I'm a happy man. Thanks for the help and suggestions guys!:classic:
