I'm running 20deg on my B-cam/SU, however I also have the Gary Boone EI
distributor. I'm not sure, but maybe you want to go with about 18 degs with
a mechanical dizzie? I highly recommend Gary's dizzie with your B-cam so
you have good/precise firing at the rpm's where that B-cam works for ya.
I wouldn't 'lock up the plate'(? you mean disable all advance?!!?) for
any reason. Solexes don't have a vacuum advance. I haven't tried mine
withOUT vacuum adv, but don't expect it would help you any (some
qualification depending on the advance springs in your dizzie).

The only 'vibration' I can think of that doesn't include a definable *sound*,
might be engine mount(s), u-joint(s), or bad gas/tune -- I seem to get about
a tank of bad gas per year, and the car vibrates (among other things).
