Re: skip white dizzy
They ship out of middle TN. I bet you see it pretty quick. Friend of mine just bought one last week. Order off ebay on Saturday and had it Wed I believe. That was to TX. His was for a boat. We put it in yesterday and it performed great.

I got a dist from them a year ago and still no problems. Skip white has a battle going on with another HEI seller and he is determined to be the low price leader on HEI so take advantage of it. There is little difference in HEI dists under $100. |

Re: skip white dizzy
I agree for the price they are all imported. im more concerned on the bushing/shaft life than the electronics, but for the money who cares. I got turned off from chinese parts several years back when a local speed shop started pushing pp huricane intakes instead of edelbrocks. we tried one, opened it up and noticed one intake runner was cast 3/4 of an inch lower than the other 7.

As I remember you start with the turning the allen all the way out til it stops then set the inital timing at book spec. then turn the screw in a turn or 2 and test drive. Do that till it pings amd then dial it back til it stops pinging. |
