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. |
