Re: 4 hole carb spacer for better signal, will it work?

If you want my honest opinion, lose the RTR distributor.... I have had several issues with them recently doing exactly what you are saying.... Replacing them with a stock HEI or even a nice msd billet dist. And msd 6al box solved all of the issues.

The other thing is with a performance ignition dial back timing lights are questionable at best..... Always set the light at zero and set timing based Soley on the balancer numbers.

Wow, I wouldn't have guessed that the distributor could be bad, what a shame. What's the chances MSD would take it back or exchange somehow?
