Not much been happening with the Southwest Ultra Corsa.  Finally got around 
to getting the 140 PCV tube I needed and it got here the other day.  So now 
the Corsa finally has a correct factory 140 air cleaner.  The new engine 
has developed a bad presumable rocker sound.  They were adjusted cold when 
the engine was put together!  Remember nothing ULTRA about this engine, all 
new parts.  Need to adjust it or figure out whats going when I get a 
chance.  Spent today though working on club members cars not my own! I did 
rejet to 51's on my 63 yesterday.  Made a big difference, had been running 
to lean.  What about Toby Browns' San Diego Ultra Corsa?  Anything 
happening on it yet?
