X2...I just recently went from a mechanical advance distributor to one with vacuum and got my carb dialed in with a wideband and my car now runs 5-10 degrees cooler at idle than before under the same weather conditions.

My car before would get up to about 200-205 stopped or in slow traffic and now never see it above 185-195 in 95-100 degree weather.
