Dudes....What the heck ?
Dons kit, Dons disk, FBO advance limiter plate, FBO plates.....They are for a V8 !!!!!!!!!!!!
The original poster has a Slant Six !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why are you shoving V8 info down his throat, when he has a 6 cylinder ?Quote
Really that's news to me we've been putting then in /6 distributors for 15 years

Quote "Don's disk is clever and well done. It could even be better, but Don only only has his own way. Anyway, that alone won't get anyone the factory curve. It can be useful when setting up a hot rod."

Better? 2* increments isn't enough, tell me what to change and I'll look over your suggestions and see if it can be done and if there's any advantage. Now they are at 0-10-12-14-16-18* setting the initial at 34-24-22-20-18-16* have you tried one of them? What could you not achieve?

Quote "If you cant find a 400 dizzy, though i dont know why you wouldent be able to, mopar made a kit that allowed the use of an RB 440 426 dizzy fit the B 383 400 block."

We have been making 383/400 distributors out of 440's for years. We have tooling and a CnC program on our mill that cuts the shaft and then re-cuts the spade to make a perfect 383/400 distributor. In our new line of 5 YEAR warranty billet distributors we have the 383/400 available. Some manufacturers ALL in China don't make the 383/400 because the volume isn't big enough to run there junk, they just want the common stuff, big volume, low quality, 30 day warranty.

Quote: "I do like the idea of the FBO plates but it s only drawback is it cannot give you more advance than what the cam plate in there has now."

This statement has me really confused? What timing numbers are you trying to achieve? I'll tell you how to get it.

Quote: "and the advance will almost always be less ideal because a parts store distributor will have some random or generic curve"

They have NO CURVE rebuilds are exactly as the same as the vehicle they cam out of. New Chinese distributors usually have 23-30* of mechanical advance if it even works. The vac cans are usually non-adjustable even though they have the hex on the can body (SAE Standard ID) they cheat you all by using a $1.70 can made by the owners Brother-in-Law and they are for EMISSIONS engines NOT Pre-computer vehicles.

Quote: "I have tried several of them as well. Not a one was worth 50 cents. Three of them in one car!"

Has anybody ever thought that maybe a 30-90 day warranty or ZERO warranty like the Famous "Orange Box" could possibly mean that they might be selling Junk! Why do people spend their money on that stuff??? If the manufacturer will only give it 30 days then why should you expect anything different?
CHEAPER is very seldom, if ever better.....
Warranty duration should be a strong indication of quality, think before you buy.

There is nothing sold in this industry with lower quality than his stuff, except maybe Spectra Distributors not really sure he even exists sounds more like a marketing tool than a person. Has Anyone actually met him?
