Thanks for the clarification Longhorn. So you don't think I'll need to install the limiter in the distributor? I had heard the total safe range for advance was 36 * for a sbc. Is that correct? My old mechanic (RIP) used to tell me to load up the engine & listen for valve chatter to make sure you weren't advanced too much, as he would recommend more advance than factory spec.
