Thanks for the info .... the distributor has the blue module and was recurved by Faron Rhoads in PA who does a lot of these .

Specs are : 8 degrees in the distributor , all in by 2750 . VA adds another 10 degrees starting at 11" up to 17 " . Initial will be around 20 degrees which should give a total at WOT ( no vacuum ) of 36 to 37 degrees. I normally set the max advance ( allowing for the MSD retard of a few degrees at 3000 rpm .... I go to 3500 rpm ) and then modify the initial if not high enough .

I should have been more clear ... MSD box is a 6 AL and the coil is a Ford HEI , E core . I`ll measure it today and if too low , I`ve got the MSD and accel coils in the garage also .

Hoping this will make it a little more streetable at low throttle openings /higher vacuum in traffic .
