    you definately don't need vaccum advance for that....leaving it unplugged should be fine, but I'd try to lock it somehow if it were me, though it probably doesn't matter.

    Haha. I've been meaning to write the specs down for a while now anyway.

    After the original question I had a link to a picture. The distributor on the left has a plate I made to lock it out. I was curious if that plate would be all I would need or not. I had assumed that with that set-up it wouldn't hurt to leave the vaccum advance off. I just wanted to make sure the plate had the right concept behind it.

    On a side note, any estimates on flywheel and rwhp givin the specs. Also it has a 3800 TCI stall converter. Once again if it looks weird typing off the phone. Thanks again.

    Joe
