I dont know a hell of alot about it all so could you explain the need to adjust the timing ???
When you change an exhaust system it changes the way the engine will run, normally when you make the exhaust flow better by decreasing back pressure the timing will need to be advanced a couple of degrees, Just ask roadkill with open system the car was down on power and rough idle, when the timing had been tweeked it ran back how it used to

The results will be very interesting, is there a local dyno? Or can anyone recommend one. They will need to be used to carbs and none of this electric Tomfoolery..
Keep an eye out on here mate, usually a couple of dyno days a year posted on here. There is a chassis dyno at silverstone if you cant wait but it runs about £400 for half a day. There is also a dyno over in wellingborough and one in birmingham that have run dyno days
If you just need the motor dynoing then again ICE engines at silverstone charge £400 for a session including any tunning

Thanks for that, ideally I'd like to be able to adjust the carb / timing etc while there to get it spot on so Silverstone sounds good.
here is the details for the engine dyno at silverstone, i cant remember who had the chassis dyno but i will see if i still have the information
