Thanks for asking! I had my Racecar distributor dropped in this engine and the mechanical advance was locked out. When I initially timed it, it had it set to 10 degrees before tdc. I was counting on the mechanical advance weights to add 15-20 degrees of timing once it started up. The mixture was literally burning outside of the exhaust port. I bunped up timing to 32 degrees and all was right with the world.

Thank brother. I should have shown it. When I dropped distributor in, I lined the magnetic pickup up with whatever tooth of the wheel was closest. Then looked at my cap to find the wire on the cap it was pointing at. They say when breaking in a cam, you want the motor to fire right off. This seems to work for me. I’d it had a mechanical advance, the pipes wouldn’t have glowed like that. That was My bad for not considering that.

It really doesn’t matter how you drop it in, as long as the vacuum advance canister has room to rotate either direction. I usually do the finger trick, spin it over, hear the poot. Look down at balancer and move the timing mark and balancer about an inch to the left of the 0 on the pointer. Whichever lug on your cap that the metal tip of distributor is pointing at, make that your number 1. Then wire it up in order. Car should fire up. Get your timing light ready.
