SS Springs on 75 Duster

It was 106 today....the DA 5600....what a lovely day.....got in staging lanes....car sounds great....did burn out.....launch....shift into second gear....silence....engine shuts off....coasting down the track...trying to get it to fire...nothing...get towed back...

no spark....ignition box takes ****....no biggie....garage on 7 miles away got brand new msd 6 al in box.....but had to work on Green 71 Duster....trans issue again...it goes back into trailer for another day...back to this one.....I go get a refund for the bracket race today and tomorrow....figuring i could probably make this after noon but too dam hot...

Change out box....fires right up.....go to take it for a drive....shooting ducks at 3000 rpm....get back and check wiring....bingo light comes on ...there is a chip in the msd ....3000 rpm....ok.....
remove chip and now it back fire thru carb.....WTF.....ok....pulled valve cover to check valve train...everything ok....i look at distributor.....it does not look right...the Tach drive is usually pointing at one of the intake bolts...and it aint......grab distributor and it is ******* loose....it went full retard...and timing light in garage....i guess and fires up....no problem.....running great now will reset timing in morning and probably race the sunday bracket race.....suppose to be only 99 degrees...
