    Mallory 32 series ?s

    I have a 32 series dizzy that uses the magnetic reluctor pickup. When I went to change the advance, I broke the magnet, into 3 pieces, that sits under the pickup. Now I am having trouble timing the engine and am wondering if that would cause this problem.

    best way to ground alternator

    I have a chrome plated alternator that I have a hard time grounding, it causes the voltage to fluctuate. I grounded the vr and it helped some and then I ran a 16 ga wire to one of the housing bolts and that helped some more. How can I get a good ground on this thing?

    grounding

    Should there be a ground wire on one of the starter bolts, would this help? I have a ground wire from the right front of the head to frame and left rear of the head to frame. Some times, especially if its been heat soaked after driving it seems to drag some.

    multi spark ignition

    I understand that one reason to use multi spark on a carbed engine is to ignite the unburned fuel on the low rpm side. Would the same train of thought be used for an efi engine? Or would there be no gain?

    timing

    Why do you hook the vacuum advance up to manifold on some distributors? I have a fbo system and was told to hook it up this way. Also, do you time the engine with it hooked up or not? In the Eddy carb setup book it says to do it this way if you have a long duration cam, mine is 237/242 @ .050...

    gauges

    I have bought the stewart warner 1 1/2" gauges to replace the existing gauges in my 72 dart. My problem is that when I hook them to 12v, chassis ground and the sender they will act erratically. For example; the oil pressure will read 60 lbs, the tranny temp is about a 1/4" off zero and the...
