Who has used it? Which springs did you use? Do you like it? Thank you drive through.
Thanks. I am just wanting to see what different results people have and how they like it. Do you ever experience any binding or sticking of the mechanical advance mechanism?
I put mine on the 16 degree slot. I plan to run 20* initial and see what happens. This is in a small block distributor going in my 331 Hemi.
I have done a TON of reading and talking to some locals with early and 426 Hemis. ll agree that the design of the Hemi chamber makes it possible to run more timing early on in the RPM range. One friend runs his 392 with 21 initial and 16 mechanical with the two light silver springs. All in by 2100. No spark knock and he is at 9.6:1. I at 9.3:1. I figure with the camshaft I have and the Hemi chamber, I will be safe.
We'll see.
Never seen one,318W.R.... what's the deal.....?Yes, I have one now. I can't remember what springs, but I don't have total timing till a little later than most. If it's what you need, then it's a great investment.
this is what I boughtNever seen one,318W.R.... what's the deal.....?
Thanks! Something new, to learn...this is what I bought

In talking to Bob and Erick at Hot Heads, they said 30 degrees total and between 15-20 initial. That's for 10 to 1 compression.
I've used it & it is the absolute hand down best bang for the buck for setting mech adv degrees. it is a .035" thin round metal plate 2.5"OD with a center hole 19/32" ID & (5) pairs of rectangular holes to limit the weight(s) travel. it has holes for 10-12-14-16-18 crank degrees of mech adv.Who has used it?

Price is now $25.00 but we include the shipping eBay or direct.Not that it's a big deal or anything, but you can send $22.00 directly to FBO at 4secondsflat.com rather than use Ebay.
$25 on Ebay is to cover the seller fees.
Hey rusty, what did you do to get compression in your 331? Custom pistons? I getting ready to build one also
The plates are a much easier approach than welding/filing the slots...
