Do You have a pic of your engine?
what Distributor are You using?
if it ends in 009... its a common replacement distributor that needs to be tuned at maximum revs using a strobe timing lamp at 30 degrees... [28 to 32]
check out Rob & Dave's website
everything you need to know is there..

PS: items with yellow dots not original parts..
items marked green are for the semi automatic
items marked blue are accessories
