Matt,
    If that WERE true, then why does it make such a noticeable improvement in 
PART throttle acceleration to convert the 150/180's pressure retard to vacuum 
advance.  Could it be that unlike you, the rest of us don't normally 
accelerate at FULL throttle??<GGGG>

How's this for a possible answer to my own question. my engine pulls between 
14 and 18 in. Hg at Idle. So if advance kicks in at 22 in. Hg I should be 
cool. Does a that sound reasonable?

Yes it does! [ to me]  gg   VA's are much better off coming "in"  
late..rather than early...

Many say their engines are gutless unless the VA  is working.....I say 
BS.....when you accelerate...you have little to NO  VA  signal from the port 
[

Go for it!
