Timing with a B distributer
What should I set my "Starting" timing at with a "B" centrif advance distributer installed in my Banger A?
At 2000 rpm what should my total advance be? I installed a degree wheel like newer cars have to read the timing. |

Re: Timing with a B distributer
I am using a 6-1 Winfield head and if I remember correctly I set my B dist at 5 degrees advanced. Total advance then is 20 degrees.

1. Do you know if your timing cover is a Model A timing cover which was designed for use with a manual advanced A distributor? or, 2. Do you know if your timing cover is a different, Model B timing cover which was designed for use with a centrifugal advanced B distributor? 3. What type of head is on one's A engine? Once one's timing cover is identified as either an A timing cover or a B timing cover, (e.g., differences are indicated Mr. Vince Falter's "Model A Ford Garage"), one can continue to become informed on how to time one's engine using one's timing pin. |
