Lock it out.

It wants 24-25 initial and I have run as much as 41 total. I am still tinkering with total, but when I bring it down to 38, it kills my idle....Too big of a spread to get a really good idle and the total where I want it.

The MP one will do what you want... it has about 25*
of advance in the dist so you would have to reduce the
advance about 5*

So your saying I modify my MP one that I have, because I don't think idling at 15* and having my total at 37* or 38* is going to cut it...

I was told vacuum would take care of all that, and this is an MP one with a vacuum pod, and against all my years of working on these I went with what the guy said, and I will be calling him. He asked me what vacuum the engine idles at, and I told him, I have never even owned a vacuum gauge in all the years I have been racing, well he bult it for 12, and I went and bought a gauge after recieving the distributer and it reads 5-6....All I know is, I get a great idle at 24-25, and good top end around 38-39, but I can't get both. I hate stock crap....NEVER RUN A VACUUM DISTRIBUTER ON A CAR YOU RACE!
