so, first off, great website with tons of helpful info.. but i do have one question im not completley sure on... its the 2.8 metering block..
i have a 84 bii, im gathering parts for the duraspark conversion, and since my carb was recently rebuilt, i figured id use that one over buying another, and try this metering block thingy. i already have my 1/2" thick piece of material, but making the proper holes is making me think real hard.. i think i may have it right, but lets see...
i been to the website

Ive seen the pictures, but im stumped by the large oval hole.. i see that it dosnt go all the way through, so does the 10-24 and 1/4-20 screw holes (from the thickness side) tap through to the oval? and does the larger and smaller metering holes go just to the cavity that the tap made?
thanks in advance. i appreciate any responses to help me save my bii..
