Fish68,
Very well written.:thumblef:
Im glad that you understand the way distributors work and have yours set up for your motor.
The two things i liked most were the fact that you said, not to use the vacume advance on a drag car, and if you do use it on a sreet car to have it blueprinted.
My main concern was people with performance steet motors cranking there timing up and possibly hurting there motors.
The only way to effectivly adjust your distributor to use the vacume advance, is to run it on a distributor machine and adjust the canister to give the right amount of advance for every thousand rpm's.
That is what a blueprinted distributor is.
I ran my distributor i run now in my 318 on my freinds distributor machine and adjusted it to my combination.
It's strickly a mechanical distributer for street racing and bracket racing.
Having acess to a distributor machine is a blessing.
Mopar performance has a book on small block A engines for anybody who dosen't already know ,and it covers every little performance secret that mopar ever found out.:read2:
