Do you have the newer MP or older unit
The only way to adjust the new style is to weld up the slots.     he mean on the old style you have to weld up the slots

Go to FBO website, they sell a wheel that fits in the distributor with 4 sets of slots that the weight pins slide in. No welding reuqired.
How can you tell if you have an old or the new type MP distributor?

Quickest way is to tell is to pull the rotor. If it has a brass colored rotor shaft it's the newer style. This is of course, the vacuum advance units.

I have a MP distributor that I bought new about 8 years ago. It ended up having 59* of total timing. There is two screws under the rotor, Torx I think, I loosened them and could move an adjustable stop to limit total timing, then tighten the screws back up. Its been that way now for several years in the pulling truck.
