Linda,
Both Dean and Dann offer recurve kits which have the non-smog springs,
cam and
weights. Others may as well. They may also have just the springs,
but I
haven't checked. I don't know whether the emissions control
configuration
springs are still available or not. If interested, I can look
the part up the
part numbers. As Paul indicated, all you need is the 7.5 cam
and springs. I
think Nissan lists different vacuum control units for
pre-smog and smog
distributors, but I think the calibration was the same.
Let me know if you want
the numbers.
Gary

Re: [Roadsters] distrubitor
Are the springs available or anyone know the
sizes? I imagine they should be
replaced after awhile.
