pull the dizzy out and move it over a tooth...might be you don't have the dizzy in the right spot and it looks like you're waaaay advanced. if that doesn't do it, then pull the timing cover and degree in the cam.





does not matter on sb mopar...as long as the cap and rotor point to #1 at the same time and as long you have room to move the vacuum advance and it does not hit the intake manifold...




I know, but....if the dizzy is off a tooth or two, you might actually have the rotor under plug #1's terminal if you put them on the terminals they are supposed to be on what is shown on all the diagrams, and you're actually reading off what should be #2, so when you try advance it to where you want it to be it's way too advanced....been there, done that, I knew something was up when it ran best with 13 or so degrees of initial RETARD, not advance. unbolt the dizzy, jump it over one tooth (or move the plugs over 1 terminal) and all was hunky dorey....
