EI Distributor stuff:
   Well, I basically used the article from Jason's web page to install my EI dizzy.  The car runs well, but the stupid thing makes my factory tach jump all over!  I am looking for a new little black box, as I think he is the culprit of my twitchy tach.  We'll see.  I plan to have some pictures if the switch up soon.

    
Update (2/26/02):  I had always meant to try to "re-curve" the mechanical advance in my new distributor, and I just got around to it.  My old distributor had 11.5 degrees advance on it, and the new one only had 6.5, plus it had two sets of springs (making for a slower advance curve)  Well, I took off one set of springs, and I noticed a difference in acceleration.  I used to have a huge "bogging down" right off the line.  Removing the inner springs on the new distributor got rid of most of the problem.  Soon I plan on increasing the amount of advance it gives.  I'll post my findings when I get around to trying it.
