Appreciate the help, guys...I'll install with rotor pointing to #1 (cam sprocket zero at 12:00 high) again. The vacuum can clearance isn't an issue, I just felt it was a little close when fully (initial) advanced. Probably due to my HEI distributor being a little larger than the stocker. My setup is very similiar to Davids', mine also tries to stall when cold-idling in gear at 900rpm. It doesn't help that my EGR's are blocked off, as the car warms up slowly. Also, I use a manual choke on the Q-Jet, when this mill goes back in it'll have a Torker II and a Demon 750 w/vacuum secs and an electric choke, as well as a slightly higher stall speed on the converter. Hoping the looser converter will improve the cars' stoplight manners when cold. Has a nice lopey idle (Comp XE268H), I'm hoping a port-and-polish will really wake up this engine.
