I have a 2nd Edition copy of it - 1975. What make/model/year do you need information for and I'll see if I can copy the data out for you?

Have two models listed for 1975 - The Maxi and the Maxi HL

The difference appears to be for the compression ratio - The HL is 9.5:1 whereas the standard is 8.75:1....

Which to you need, and what data are you after?

hi gil it is the standard one , i just want to set the points and ignition timing at the moment and maybe check the tappets the car is running but not great thanks again joe

Grand so:

.38mm breaker gap
Champion N9Y plugs with 0.6mm Sparkplug Gap
13 degrees btdc @ 1000 rpm strobo with vac advance disconnected

For the valve timing, it's 9deg 4min btdc with .53mm clearance for the inlet valves, and for the tappets, 0.014-0.016 for inlet, and 0.017-0.019 for the exhaust, both cold.

Shout if you need something else.

Rgds,

Gil
