I searched! I even tried to resurrect an old thread but it didn't get much attention, so I'll start another...
I bought a 205aa distributor (1974 1.8 dizzy) for my 2.0 with dual webers (it has an 009 now), and I'm not sure about the vacuum connections. The vacuum can on the 205 has two vac ports, as I understand it, one for advance and one for retard ( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ). What do I do with the retard side, use it or plug it? Where would the retard side plug into? Will this operate as well as an SVDA (assuming both have petronix installed), or should I re-sell this 205 and pick one of those up instead? Finally, do I need to use the vacuum from both carbs, or will one suffice? TIA Chris |

Today I finally yanked my old 009, points, and old coil and put in the 205AA with pertronix, new blue coil, and plugs/wires. I also ran vaccume lines from my webers to the advance can on the new dizzy. WHAT A DIFFERENCE. More low end grunt, as well as continuous pull through to redline, smoother power delivery from idle to WOT. It's like a whole new car, the smile on my face after the "it's all dialed in" drive was HUGE, maybe as big as it was the day the car was first delivered...
