I ran one on a 2180 with 44 idfs, no worries. Never had an issue with it. Changed it to a 009 - couldnt feel any difference, car ran no better or worse.

To summarise, they are different, but I dont know how, I timed them at 3000 rpm to 32 BTDC, didnt take any other notice.

Hope that helps :-)

This is from aircooled.net

The 009/010 is best used for stock rod ratio engines, where you do not want to do all this customer ignition curve work. Let me first say that I'm not a fan of the 050. The 050 has a different advance curve, and it's more suited for short rod engines (like the type 4), or engines with a bigger crank and shorter rod (78 stroke with Porsche length rods, etc).

I mainly hear about them on Type 4 powered motors

so apart from being more suitable for a t4 or shorter rod ratio engine, what is the difference?

or should i saw why is it more suitable for this application.

if it is more suitable for this type of application, i am very curious, as it may be advantageous for me to use it on my t4.

just wondering whether anyone has an opinion as to whether this would suit my t4 better than the 009

Haven't got it yet. Craig's sending / bringing it up with some other stuff when he's up this way again, so I don't know yet.
