I know there’s about 1,000,001 variations of the distributors on these cars, and I’ve also read here that the Pertronix Distributors are clones of the much hated 009 distributors. Is the SVDA unit they sell considered acceptable because it has a better curve than their other units?

So far I haven't read any downside to using the vacuum retard other than having one extra hose to hook up. I figure if it reduces emissions without robbing performance, why not?
I have read that you should not block it off if you don't use it because that will affect the advance side too. Someone on my thread (Dave Darling?) said on some 914 models, there was a hose connected to the retard port that was just routed to some hidden place and not connected on the other end. |
