Re: 396/375 hp/motor issues
well I bumped motor over to TDC to remove the distributor before i went to work..noticed when removed the cap that the rotor is actually pointed between number 1 and 8 on distributor cap .swore i placed it dead on when installed..possible ,could this have been the problem?

Re: 396/375 hp/motor issues
well,changed distributor .it is a stock gm distributor with a curve kit and a pertronix ignitor ll.it was in another 396 car and runs just fine...it basically ran the same.installed new cap and plug wires.still the same ....will try eliminating the msd 6a box and see if that is the issues..getting out my AFR and see if the car is that far out of tune,u wouldnt think so ,it the car was dynoed tuned..stumped on this one

Re: 396/375 hp/motor issues
Only way rotor would be pointing directly at #1 is if timing was on 0 degrees,you can set timing close as example you run 36 degrees line pointer up w/36 drop dist in line up w/# 1 on rotor &cap if dist. has advance twist rotor where it advanced and twist dist to line up w rotor,in case you don't know put mark on dist below cap where it's center of #1 electrode on cap.
I say you are going to find problem w/ ign, box Mike Taylor 3601 |
