On a combo like this, i'm getting a MSD Mech. dist. with a Mallory 6AL box, it does not have vacuum advance, it is primarily a street car, what would be a good baseline for this combo?
71 dart. Manual steering & brakes. 360 magnum, stock short block. RHS heads. 9.1 Re-ground stock cam 1.6 rockers. (.477/.477, .218/.218 @50, 112 LSA) Summit headers. RPM airgap, 750 3310 904, PTC 2800 11", 3.73 gears. MT 255/60/15s

I would set the initial to what your cam/eng wants then shorten/adj the total to keep the aforementioned 35 (vac adv disconnected/hose plugged if VA is used)then play w the springs (and definitely toss the stock heavy one w the long loop) going as light as possible staying JUST UNDER the pinging point as you run thru the gears at WOT. Then if vac adv is used plug in the hose and work w it for the most adv also wo pinging at PART throttle like at a steady cruise on the highway and a high enough RPM where the mech springs are maxed out. done in order on your hottest/driest day (most likely to ping).
