Default more vacuum

Hi,
Factory distributors are set to higher vacuum readings for a stock cam. IE;
It will probably start advancing at 10 to 12 inches of vacuum and have maximum advance at 20 inches of vacuum. It could pull 20 to 30 degrees more advance under high vacuum.
Performance cams have low vacuum and should have a performance mechanical advance only and not use the vacuum advance.
Good luck,
Perry.
