So to make a long story short, you could get it to work, but with locked out timing only.

Thanks a million,that's what I was afraid of and not what I want (locked timing)......so,now it's back to the drawing board.....
I guess the next best thing to do is use this distributor as a core and get a rebuilt one for an early 80's Mustang GT with a carb.....
any other suggestions other than MSD????? I'm burnt out on them.My car sits for sometimes a month or more and have had corrosion problems all the time, it gets old having to pull the cap off and clean all the contacts and mechanical weights to get it to work right...
