Quick question, for carb conversion, is the 009 Bosch the recommended Distributor?
Isn't there two versions of that Distributor? Thanks Frank |

The 'centrifugal advance' portion of the 034 is advertised to be equal to a 'properly setup' 009, except the vacuum advance gives you better 'off idle' throttle response and depending on which vacuum source you tap from, also get better fuel economy.
There are lots of ignition articles with varying clarity, here are a couple of them; http://www.gofastforless.com/ignition/advance.htm http://www.lbfun.com/warehouse/tech_info/t...m_explained.pdf The 034 I linked to, is PRE-setup and includes electronic points, so once you set the timing....... it should be very low if any maintainence at all ..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ......... your time setting will depend on your compression/engine mods. .... oh and I bought their coil to make sure I am within their warranty. |
