Could you please tell me the gap to set the points. Which marks do I use to set the timing and is the No 1 cylinder nearest to the front or the back of the car. I am also thinking of converting the car to work with Hydrogen where would I tap into the carbs?
Kind regards Henry

A points gap would be between.018-.020.
#1 cylinder is the front cylinder.
Timing marks would be located on the front of the crankshaft.
Before you consider changing to hydrogen, you had better do a little research.
