veecat,
From your previous post concerning the serial numbers, you will need to confirm it is a 1976. The number given indicates it is a 1977. There was a change from 76 to 77/78 in engine tuning. Here is a link to " THE FINE TUNE MANUAL"

Also check out the FAQ section of this web site for future questions, there is alot of shared info.
