Seems like they were all the rage years ago and now are out of favor?

What sort of engine build/tune would work well with one of these? Yeah - I have a NOS the shelf.

Thanks!

Nope different curves. 009 ok for normal stroke type one engines. 050 for short stroke type ones and all type fours. I just put the Petronix distributor on my stock 2.0 and really like it. Advertised as the best of both 009 and 050 curves.

Yes they do have a different advance curve,possibly done with heavier springs,not 100% sure as I have never had a 050 apart,I think the 912 guys had good results with them as a replacement for worn out stock ones.
