Thanks. The dizzy is designed for all British 6 cylinders.  I tuned it down a notch to 30 max advance and it is running well now.  Jim

I'm having trouble removing the old bushings for replacement. Any advice on
how to do this would be appreciated

Easiest thing to do is get Art Lipp=E2=80=99s Delrin bushings which install=
 without removing the old ones as seen here:

They were such a pain that I simply cut the nubs off and pushed them down the column and put the new ones in on top of them. The more the merrier I figured. Red rubber grease helps too.

When I did mine, I had the steering column out, and so it was a simple
matter to shoot some lubricant in, push the rubber protrusion in a bit
and whack it out with a hammer and wooden drift.

Replacing the bushings with the original style turned out to be dead
simple, and the column feels brand new again.  Removing and replacing
the column, however, was a different kettle of fish.  In the end, I
got it back where it belongs, and it's all lovely and repainted, but
there's a couple of bolts that were clearly the starting point for the
assembly of the entire vehicle.
