This is a second generation lean burn setup. The first generation featured dual pick ups, under the cap. The key thing to note is that neither of them have vacuum advance. http://www.allpar.com/mopar/lean-burn.html

Here is a first generation. The two sets of wires give this one away.

Thats the one you want. You can get the MP quick advance springs if need be. How ever informed you about distrib's dosen't know much.

Yup! I know three speed shops here that can "re-curve" your advance too. About $50. The canister can also be changed to pull more or less advance, depending on the vaccumm. MOPAR made one of the best, if not the best OEM electronic ignition systems for the era. And they'll still fire a nitro or alky Hemi dragster.

To answer questions 1,2 & 3 in a word, yes. Though they may not be needed. It is also possible to use just one as well.

Lets not get into the Recurving deal again, the easiest way is probably what me and rumble already know and the mp springs or Mr Gasket are the way to go if you dont have one get one or have some body that Knows how to use one a Timing Light With adjustabal degrees on it also remember when we say a dist has 14 degrees in it thats 28 degrees at the crank Dist deg times 2= crank deg so if you want 38 total initial would be 10deg.If using vac advance time it vac line off and pluuged also make sure you use a ported vacum source.i got it right Rumble Fish.?

The vacuum advance activation point is adjustable with a small hex wrench into the port and I'll adjust this as needed to obtain best mpg without ping. im lerning new things by the hour thanks for the help guys iv never looked in to the factory dizzys befor .i always figerd for performance by a msd or acell unit.

OK, I should have said vaccumm advance for daily-driver grocery getters or if you want the best fuel economy. But shoot. Look at a Weed Eater or a chain saw. They use a coil the size of a walnut and an igniton module the size of two big peanuts to fire an oil-gasoline mix. Not exactly high-tech. I've used a Jacobs Ignition system and liked it very well. MSD's are great. You really don't have to have either to run your car/truck. I got sick of points on 60's cycles, especially British ones, but their ignitions were so bad, it was a wonder they ran at all.

I know that this will be taboo...I lock all the advance out of my dist and pop rivit the plate after I set my airgap. I run the car at 34 degrees, start the car at 34 degrees, and it works for me!

He's a good man and a great help when it comes to things. An excellent guy to speak to and he will help you. If you want to go racing and need help, he has my thumbs up. I just don't subscribe to his race way of thinking for the street and on mild engines. It's not allways a needed move to do. |
