Title: Accel Distributor
Post by: 76k104x4 on December 30, 2010, 09:02:06 pm

I just put a new Accel dist. on my truck stock 350 and it made a huge difference as far as throttle response used to it would hesatate when i punched now it will get up and go i still need to fine tune the timing and advance but for 120 for dist. and 50 for high performance coil it did a lot as far as i can tell money well spent

I noticed similar benefits when I put an MSD dist. in my 350, but it didn't realize it's full potential until I put some massive plug wires from Performance Auto on it, recurved it with lighter springs and the Moroso weights and plate, and opened up the plug gap a bit. Without good wires the spark just can't get there.
