Mopar Performance Distributor adjustable advance?

Thank you for all your replies! I was already looking for a new distributor not knowing that the one I had was actually a really good one.

No, it's not trial and error. Get a grammar school protractor. Stick the rotor on. Put the protractor above the rotor so the tip or the rotor is pointing to zero. Now, twist the rotor advanced and see how many degrees you have. Multiply that times 2 and you have crankshaft degrees. So if you have 5 degrees at the distributor, that's 10 crank degrees. Get it? Screw that trial and error chit. And screw that FBO guy. lol

Thank you, I always appreciate learning how it's done correctly!


I did find the tuning keys on ebay and they even come with springs. I also ordered a new reluctor because the one in the distributor is pretty chewed up.
