got off of work a little early had a chance to mess around with the HEI, It likes 14 degrees initial with vacuum disconnected and plugged. took it for a little joy ride. smooth idle, good response to the pedal, get up and go has improved bigtime, and it starts up a heck of a lot quicker too. I'll check this weekend what the total advance and I may have to adjust the mixture for the hotter spark. all in all I am impressed with the HEI-although my old distributor,points,cap,rotor,coil could have been shot to hell and on it's last leg-but my car is ruuning a heck of a lot better
