Just finished installing a Mallory Unilite distributor, coil, ballast
resistor and Edelbrock 600 CFM carb with new polished performer intake on my
283. Still using the Bosch premium plug wires I put on 2 years ago during a
routine tune up. Also have ACDelco R45TS plugs gapped at .030 to .035 inch.
With old distributor timing was set at TDC or 2 deg BTC.
Any need to upgrade change wires or change plug heat range or gap due to
going from original points/condensor to Mallory pointless system? I've had
timing suggestions anywhere from 4 deg. BTC to 12 deg. BTC.
Would appreciate any opinions. Thanks,
