Hi Schurkey,

Thanks again for helping out ,always enjoy your posts. I've ran with 18 initial for quite some time over the years. I have an imi starter and it's never kicked back or been an issue, always started for me.. really enjoyed that starter over the big one!

My off idle advance doesn't come on till about 1200 rpm and I'm under it at about 950 in idle and 750-850 in drive. My mechanical advance from factory was limited to 18, I did a blip to 3000 and set gun to 36, it hit the zero line . so I'm bang on 18+18 = 36.

Vac advance is currently not hooked up. When it was , it was crane limit adjusted to 6-10 degrees , to ported. so i think , that this is what I would consider quite optimized distributor?

You're saying if I have a HEI, that has the adapter to run the old points coil and not HEI coil in cap, that it would work a bit better than this points? If so I'd switch for sure on your recommendation. I just had to go back to stock since the crane xr-i fiasco screwed me Royally .
