Ignorant to the advantages of vaccum advance and retard advice needed.
Situation; My 914 is a stock fuel injection 74 2.0 which uses only vaccum advance off the dizzy to the throttle body (single ported). I also have a throttle body (dual ported) from a 76 2.0. I have correct dizzy's for both years and correct vaccum canisters for both years.. Question; Is there any advantage to switching from the 74 2.0 advance only set up to the 76 2.0 advance/retard set up? Do I have to also switch the dizzy's?? |

As far as I'm aware, only the 73 2.0 had the duel ports on the TB. I'm not sure if it carried over into early 74 or not. It's suppose to be more responsive. I can't say that I've noticed much difference either way.
