Where to set timing
^^Thats how its done. That is the starter plan
The tricks are just a bit of knowledge, and a lot of experience.
OK AJ, I have read a lot of your posts and I trust your judgment.
I will start over and see if I can get the Vac can to integrate with the rest.
I will be the first to admit that currently without the can, it likes open throttle way better than mid-range mild acceleration. Say easing on the throttle from about 1500 rpm. It doesn't stutter or fall flat, but does seem to hesitate a touch waiting for the timing to catch up.
That does beg the question, which distributor to start with?
I have never changed curves but I do understand the principle and the mechanics of it.
I have stock ignition system currently.
On a side note, when I bought the car, I found a distributor in the trunk.
Weird thing is there is a blank cover screwed in where the vac can would mount and it has NO mechanical advance. I looked for numbers on it but there are none.
Ever heard of such a thing? A distributor with NO advance at all?
