440 timing pinging and popping thru exaust

ok lets try and straighten this out...

1967_CUDA...nice post one of the few that were genuinely helpful...shows you actually read all of the post

MOPEKID...yes the factory 10-10 marks are there but this setup requires an initial setup of more than 10 degrees advance with NO VACUUM ADVANCE

AJFORMS...one more time ...THERE IS NO VACUUM ADVANCE...yes I wish I still had the old dist it was turned in for core value

KRAZYKUDA...I felt his post as a slight...he didnt read the post Thoroughly, and slighted me with this statement "so your "friend" moved it, and you didn't move it back , or re-time it before you went "romping" on it?" you figure out how

roccodart440 ... have you ever put in a dist in a chevy??? two very different processes since a chevy dist isn't simply either "in" or "180 out" as in mopars and I think you know what I mean when I say "either in or 180 out"

"No marks on the balancer, well Mr. old guy, that can be fixed pretty easily. Since you have been in the game for so long, I'm sure you know what to do. "
why yes young mopar guy you get a digital timing light but just what degree of advance do you set the init timing???

"Plug the vacuum advance until you have this problem solved. It shouldn't be advancing via the vacuum advance"
your not reading young mopar guy (typical) there is no vacuum advance...try harder next time

MOPER... another intelligent post...the replacement dist came from Napa auto parts and you are correct I have no idea just where the sdvance curve is with this dist or even if it is working correctly...again a digital timing light could tell me if it is functioning correctly I BELIEVE... I MAY BE WRONG

[/B]AJFORMS... do you have your answer yet or are you still waiting???

rustyratrod... "Search "Hillbilly timing tape" on the forum. Nuff said. "
get a digital timing light please go back to your rusty hulk now enuf said

73abodie... "you said yourself you went "romping" on it AFTER the guy went screwy with your distributor. with all your years of experience , this shouldn't even be an issue for you, its not for me..." the popping and pinging only showed up under WOT it wasn't like he turned the dist 2 inches and left it there he cranked it back and forth...I tried to reset it back to where I thought it was....under normal driving conditions it was fine...does that clarify the issue to those who might be confused??? those who do not read Thoroughly...well then you should give up posting...anywhere

and for the trolls out there yes I left 1 thing out of my posts I neglected to mention that I didn't let the chevy guy time the car he just grabbed the dist and cranked on it without my permission
