Re: HEI - Rebuild or replace with new

I ended up swinging by a local garage and had them check the timing. It looks like I had the dizzy in 2 or 3 teeth off so they pulled it out, pulled the #1 spark plug and had me bump over the engine with the starter 5 or 6 times. (I'm guessing this is a method of finding TDC?)

I was already running HEI before but it was "well used". With the new dizzy the truck runs and revs much smoother.
