Hello All,
I am finishing up an engine bay restoration and am needing some advice. We installed a MSD ready to run distributor with vacuum advance. We are having some lower rpm power issues and low yet steady vacuum. We are around 14 deg btdc and we are looking to advance just a touch more but unfortunately the vacuum advance canister is hitting the top radiator hose.
So my question is do I need the vacuum advance? If so, is there anyway to rotate the gear that the distributor shaft goes into so I can move the distributor more?
