The exhaust buterfly your talkin about was jammed shut when i got the car, the spring that open and closess it was rusted out. every time i whent up the slightest hill i would get back pressure through the carby so i ripped the carby off to check it and changethe blown gaskets and noticed the butterfly was jammed. i couldnt just replace the spring and couldnt be stuffed changing the manifold so i jammed it wide open and tagged it with a mig on the outside of the manifold to keep it open, it ran better of course when u think about it when it was jammed shut all my exhaust was trying to escape out of a 5mm gap. my ignition module whent the other day and after being told by my mate at auto one a replacement was $45. at trade price, (This is just after christmas) i did some reaserch, the ignition module out of a 4AC is the same as VL and VK commodore EFI engines, i whent to All Holden Wreckers where my mate works got one for free swapped it over and the car runs better than before, still a bit guttless, but with the way shockies are i'de kill myself with any reall power, their that bad its like a boat, courners can be very skeary. I jumped started a mates car the other day with jumper leads and his girl friend closed the bonet, it didnt close properly and i was un aware, once i hit 70k's it flipped open, the windscreen is fine but the bonnet is stuffed. I saw ppl in one of the other post talking about how fast they can take there 4AC's, mine makes 160Kmph in 5th and 5500rpm but handles like a fat women on a water bed, i've got to replace those shockies.
