Custom distributor curving.
I had idle issues after installing 2 lights springs. The distributor was trying to advance at idle causing the idle to dance around.
I agree with Joe, Its probably best to use only 1 light spring.
Adam,
Here's what I have so far as of my last set up tonight on springs.
On the stock distributor I had here are the results.
Mr. Gasket light springs only = all mech. advance in at 1000 rpm.
Mr. Gasket light spring and short stock spring = all mech. advance in at 1500 rpm.
Short stock spring and second short stock spring from recore distributor =
all mech advance in by 2200-2500 rpm.
I think this is optimal but now I have to figure out if I have some pinging or it's valve train clatter / exhaust leaking.
I don't know if I will try the set up with the stock long and short springs to see advance
rate with the plates .100" shorter or not. It doesn't take long to do but
I have a lot of other work on this beast to tackle.
I will say this once again, holy cow does this thing launch like a rocket
now! Might be time for new tires soon. :burnout:
