Okay so basically run a 10A fuse inline with the fat red wire from the battery positive?? I'm assuming this is to reduce blowing the MSD box in case of a short??
And just going from memory, distributor phasing is how on point the rotor is with the cap, so basically if it is sparking when it is perfectly inline rather when then earlier or later, and this is to reduce the chance of the spark jumping to an earth or another point??
Correct me if I am wrong on this.
But in regard to distributor phasing, got any tips for a rookie like myself?? Or any procedures I should take??
And with timing, I was going to set the dizzy to either 0degress, or advance it 2degrees, and then I was going to lock it down and advance the timing through the MSD, this is a 250 X-flow from a Falcon XC sedan, its running 350 Holley, extractors, stock cam (got new cam, just want to get ignition working), its converted to Unleaded and it has a comp of around low 10s:1.
So how much advance would you recommend on the timing?? also correct me if I am approaching the timing wrong.
Also, How about spark plug gap size?? MSD recommends a gap of 0.050 for around that comp
Thanks
