Re: Distributor

The cool thing about distributors is the fact you don't have to set it up exactly the same way. When you stab the distributor, just aim the advance the way that will allow for the most adjustment on the timing. As long as the rotor is pointing to #1 @ DTC, it doesn't matter. There may be numbers on distributor caps, but that doesn't mean you have to use those either. You can make #1 whichever you want. Some will disagree, but I've done it a hundred times if I have done it once. Doesn't matter whether it is points or HEI.
