I have my timing set at 27 degrees at 3000RPM right now but I am finding bad hesitation on take off. I found this article referencing a similar problem although he is on a single carb and not duals.

I was wondering two things:

1. Should I do what is suggested and advance my timing a bit more to maybe 12 degrees at 900-1000RPM? I am concerned this is too much advance based on other things I have read here.

2. I know you guys all hate the 009 so I am considering getting an original with the vac advance and just plug that. Does anyone have one? Also, what would be ideal to replace with if I wanted to spend the money? I have heard to put the Mallory on but not sure which one.

Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
