Default Re: Vacuum advance dist. for Model A

I have read on here somewhere that a 70's (?) Honda distributor can be modified to fit the Model A.

I built some using 1980 Honda 1.5 litre distributors , two I left the vac. advance on so the person can set it retarded in order to crank start , then the vac. pulls adv. to Idle setting, on one unit I blocked the vac. advance, set the total to 30 degrees. seems to do to job, the repair parts are easily bought from auto suppliers when service is needed . I like it just as good as an F.S.I ,which is a nice unit , which uses a Pertronix module . have had zero complaints .
