According to "Performance Tuning the Sunbeam Tiger," by Gordon Chittenden,
here are some specs for the FOMOCO dual point dist.:
Dist. factory curve: 26 degrees advance @ 7200 rpm
Breaker gap: .018, dwell angle total: 30-33 degrees
Max. advance limit: 14 degrees
Initial advance: 12 degrees @ 7-900 rpm
Ford Part # of dist. C5ZZ-12127-D (cost in 1967, $41.50)
In those days (1967), Gordon recommended Autolite BF-32 plugs gapped at .032
Here are his recommendations for the LAT 20 cam:
@.020 lash: intake opens: 30 degrees BTC, intake closes: 72 degrees ABC,
exhaust open: 78 degrees BBC, exhaust close: 24 degrees ATC, overlap is 54
degrees, duration is 282 degrees, maximum lift is .457. Valve lash running
clearances: intake .018 hot, exhaust .020 hot.
Didn't find anything about the vacuum reading. Has complete set-up for 465
Holley if you're interested.
Cheers,
