Used about six months, looks good.
The original distributor has Vacume Advance the MSD does not.
The seller has extra springs and weights for the MSD.
Question is:
Am I going to have problems with a switch over?
No more Vacume advance is going to cause what?
How do I make the MSD wortk?
thats a good deal on the dist. craig but you will need a msd box to make it work (starting at 200.00 ) if it was mine and a daily driver i would wont a vac. adv. on it. its more of a race dist. the only timing youer going to have is base timing and total adv. those springs and weights are used to determine how quick your total timing comes in.
