I bought a car with a MSD box and distributor. What should the timing be set at?
Thanks Dave |

The MSD website has installation instructions for the MSD 8485 VW distributor that include recommendations and graphs of the advance curves with various advance springs. It looks like you may want Curve E (silver-light and blue-light springs), but I am no expert on MSD distributors. It might help to give their online tech support a call. Good luck.
