My son was over visiting me last night. I was attempting to start a fully rebuilt engine I just finished with a Chaffins 280 cam that's no longer available. It was firing at the wrong time. I realized the NOS Tiger timer I had installed uses the same wire colors as original but in different order. The Tiger Timer is pretty much like the New Day Brush timer and all the hardware you see including mounting came with the period kit. After getting them proper, the car lit easily and I ran it on mag for about a minute.

Looks good and your descriptions it runs good. Spring will soon come and you can enjoy taking it out on tours.
