Re: Distributor setups for L78 or L72 engines?
The car is just going to be a fun driver and it has a GM HEI distributor in it now. It starts right up and the plugs look great so I plan on keeping the HEI. I checked timing after work tonight and with the vacuum advance disconnected I had about 10-12 initial and 36-38 total timing. It seems to like these settings and idles around 625 to 650 rpms. My factory tach is reading high around 1050-1100 rpms but the multi-meter is reading the 625-650. It felt pretty good tonight doing a quick test drive so I'll probably leave it as is.
