Hi all,

I have a std 25D distributor that I am going to get rebushed as it's a bit
sloppy, this car is supposed to be set to 20 BTDC at 1000rpm (1970). I want
to get the vacumn advance removed and the advance curve changed, so I'm only
getting 30 degrees total advance. Is there an article somewhere on how to
change the distributor to do this? Is it a specialist job or something an
enthusiast could do? I see a company called Aldon in the UK markets these,
and another one called Cambridge motorsports. Surely I don't have to spend
the $ for a new one? Please keep in mind I can only use a Lucas
distributor - class rules. Will have to ditch my Bosch GT40 coil at some
stage as well. :(

Cheers,
Neil.
