distributor questions
Hi guys Ihave been reading everything on dizzys I can get my hands on lately. here is my problem: I have two dizzys (009 centrifugal and 011 vac. advance) I also have duel 40 idf carbs (no vac. advance ) [Idon't want to put the vac advance hose to the intake as webbercarbs www says that spot loses vac when you open the butterflys] and the 009 only has one spring in the centerafugal advance part So witch one do I use and how? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Or do I buy a different one ? (witch one) |

Not the 009, certainly. Wrong advance curve for anything but a stationary engine (like in a generator) that's meant to run at only one speed.
There are ways to get a good vacuum signal out of IDFs. If the IDFs have vacuum ports on them (not all do), then tie them together and plumb that into a fuel filter, then into the vacuum can on the distributor. The filter helps damp the pulses in you get in invididual throttle bodies like the IDFs. The real distributor to use if you're intent on using the IDFs is a Mallory, which has many springs available to tune the advance curve. Use the two grey springs to get the best advance curve for the Type IV. Getting a Unilite Mallory also eliminates the points/condensor. |

if you want to get your car up and running go ahead and use the 009. don't waste any money on a compufire or similar, points and a condensor are fine. it will do the job until you can spring for a mallory. or, get a mallory now and be done with it.

Can I put a vac hose into the air filter? Will that work?
