Default Mallory single point distributot

Does anyone have the address of the person that can set up my Mallory. My advance only goes to 28 degrees and I would like to get it up to 40. Thanks, Art

My personal recommendation would be to send it to fellow Fordbarner Jim Linder. He goes by BUBBAS IGNITION on Fordbarn. Click on that name find his contact information. Jim is an awesome person to deal with!!

Bubbas speed shop in Speedway Indiana next to the track can do just that. I purchased mine from him after he reset the advance curve

It seems excessive to me. (yes, I also know how the original is designed)
X2....You might be able too get 34 degrees. What's your idea?

I read that the stock A makes 40 degrees in full advance. Since I don't have a stock A to check, I figured that the factory figures are what I need.

If your motor is bone stock I would just put it in and add about 4 degrees initial
advance. If you have a high compression head on it 2 degrees.
Then fine tune it from there.
