You are probably getting too much advance too soon with just one
spring and thus the pinging occurs. You need to check the advance curve of
your distributor, either with a timing light w/advance dial or take it to a
shop that can dial it in for you. Check out the archives at
www.fordmuscle.com for "Timing is Everything".
I have been using the Ignitor for years, it works great, especially
for engine hot starting. Worth every dollar for just that feature.

Should I add a second spring and see what happens, or
change the single spring there now to a single stiffer spring?
I'll do an A/C report later this week for anyone interested (but it did
keep us pretty cool, even in the hottest weather).
