Can anyone help me out here... Having trouble finding a good dizzy for my 914 / T4 motor. Have a vac advance, but have ditched the old carbs.

Can a vac advance be made to work with IDF / DRLA / HPMX carbs? They don't (or don't seem to) have provision for a vac advance. Porting the manifolds aint any good I'm told, it'll suck too hard... Has anyone ever managed to get it working? Can anyone help me out here?

Thanks

Dave

Hi Dave , I've used vac off the base of the carb/manifold on many cars for years

on different projects but I still think with the engine you are talking about building

you should consider a centrifugal advance dizzy. The Mallory unilite is, I heard

a very good unit. The Bosch dizzy for a vw or the early porsche will also work.
