Do I need to have my distributor recurved? I am using a stock 2.7 distributor on my carburetor 2.7 L engine I understand that to have a optimal performance a recurve is needed however is it really worth $500? My car is not set up for racing?
In other words will icy $500 worth of improvement from the modification ? My distributor is otherwise in excellent condition. |

Don't see you would want more advance,34-35 degrees is plenty,surely it's more about how it comes in during the rev range.
The carbs will wake up the 2.7 as the CIS is a fairy tame system power wise,maybe it won't matter... 500 notes to recurve ?,seems expensive changing the auction of the advance weights and a few tests on a distributor tester ??. |

I would agree.. I can't believe its $500 Shoot I sell my tanks for $600 and they atke about 6-7 hours to complete start to finish |
