Purdy, my main concern with the "A" distributor is more due to my own personal shortcomings. Concerned with the perils of running the motor in a pinging or detonation condition due to my inability to hear or perceive those conditions, makes me concerned about doing damage to my engine. With a 6/1 head, my understanding is one must be even more careful not to advance too much. Is it not there, or am I unable to hear it?
No matter where I put the advance, I've never heard or experienced what I believe to be any pinging.
