Just installed an MP P3690428 (dated 12/20/05) and wondering is this one of them Mallory built distributors.

If so, are they any good or need a lot of work out of the box. I just don't seem to get the same snappy throttle I did with my 'ole cast iron dual point.

I read in the tech archives RobbMc's report on the Mallory distributors and suggested reducing the mechanical advance so initial timing can be increased, if so, anyone know exactly how to do this procedure?

Thanks in advance!
