Excellent video! I have a '67 Volvo 122s with the 4 speed that I bought for $3500 running and driving. It's an amazing car and the B18 is a great engine. Working on tuning it up now. Loving how easy it is to work on after coming from modern JDM cars.

When you are shining the light on the strobe to set the ignition moment what am I looking for ?

Are the breaker points and compacitor worth scraping? I'm not sure what type of metals their made from.

When adjusting timing, you didn’t mention at what RPM the engine has to be to adjust timing.

You forgot to re-grease the points cam and to place a ball of grease behind the rubbing block to act as a future in-service supply... That new rubbing block wont last long on a bone dry points cam
