This comment sent me back to my old notes. It seems the later cars and MGBs
ran the vacuum advance from the manifolds. This was considered the prefered
position for dual carb cars as the manifold offers a more constant vacuum
than the one carb which, for the most part, only feed two cylinders in the
four cylinder cycle. Does anyone else have any thoughts?
