FE Technical Forum / questions on a recurve kit for dizzy
« on: July 21, 2018, 09:58:07 PM »
I have a C5AE distributor and need some help with a recurve kit.
First, do the centrifugal weights change when recurving a dizzy? why I"m asking is the weights that are in this dist. don't have any bushings on the mounting shafts so they are very sloppy. The advance springs are both heavy springs so I know that's not right but the shaft and bushing in the dist. housing are nice and tight with no play. This came out of an engine I bought that is a 390 4 barrel with c7ae-a heads, c7ae-9425-e intake and c6me block. Block has no wear on it, standard pistons with no ridge and very good looking factory hone. bearings are original fomoco and look great. Thanks in advance for your answer on the weights. Bud
