Jeff,

After reading Tom Kirkham's post last year I've gone down the same route as you, but I'm not finished with the installation yet. Your method for locking out the distributor looks far better than what MSD recommends. I wasn't looking forward to pulling the gear off the shaft! Great post and gives me some good retard map info. to get started. You could also add a notch in the run retard curve at 1000rpm to help keep the rpm steady - as per Tom's previous post.

Regards
Stuart
