For any of my papers, be sure to e-mail me a request. Don't use any of my papers you find posted on the Internet - they are never kept up-to-date by the people posting them, so they are always outdated, obsolete, and often altered.

I don't have any papers specifically on how to re-curve a distributor, but I do have papers on desired timing specs and how to set up the timing. I also discuss some techniques for altering the curve length, so I'll get that e-mailed out to you.

I have a copy I'd send but not sure if he is cool with people re-distributing it. He actually has several published articles and white papers on vac advance, setting timing, advance limit, installing distributor, etc. be sure to ask for all that apply...


oops, sorry Lars, you beat me to it...glad you're back BTW.
