I'm hoping to get the carbs on this week, but wanted to know if the stock distributor is ok to use.
It seems in the past I remember reading something about changing the distributor but wasn't 100% sure. I currently do not have EI, will that matter as well. Thanks, |

Did you change your cam to one more meant for carburetors? If your cam is too big it won't make any vacuum and your vacuum advance distributor will be worthless....
That is the way I build VW motors.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
