tuning help needed

That intake is same as an MP dual plane. Good piece on that car. Pro-Comp has a new ready-to-run tuneable distributor for about $90. Plenty of them on ebay, looks like a good deal if that one you have is junk. That car will run strong when the timing gets right! Good Luck

I don't think the dist. is junk or it probably wouldn't run good at all. I've modified several so I know what to do. I just ran out of time that day. Will get back on it in a few weeks. I think your right that now all it needs is some more timing.
