Yes it is. He chooses a low rated vacuum can that will keep the timing steady at idle.
It's been awhile. I'll have to check again and see what is or isn't happening. Never had any issues, it always fires right up and idles well - but if I'm missing out on increased performance then I'll want to make adjustments.
I did change one of his advance springs to a lighter one (which I liked) because not reaching full advance until 3400 rpm's seemed late.
I'd be interested to see the instructions he gave. The ones I got were nothing more than spark plug gap and ECU grounding warnings.
He set my dizzy up for 16* initial, 34* total @ 3400 rpm. It was tagged 10* 16" - which I presume to mean 16" of vacuum will pull in another 10* at the canister.
